This is a very late production ICOM IC-735 Transceiver. The IC-735 is

It features passband tuning and a notch filter that are very
effective. Only the earliest and latest production units had both
these features. The middle years production did not have these due to
patent problems I believe.

That's incorrect. You're confusing the 735 with another model that had
a passband tuning patent problem.
