Yes, thanks for catching that. The correct site is "www.icomamerica.com", not "www.icomusa.com". Confusing isn't it?
By the way, many/most HF radios have the capability to transmit on virtually any HF frequency: ham, marine, aviation, land mobile, or other. Some are specifically designed for use on several different services (like the Yaesu System 600).
However, to use them on ANY service, you need to be licensed for that service (e.g., marine, ham, aviation, etc.) irrespective of whether or not the radio is CAPABLE of transmitting there or is type-accepted for use there.
