6 IC-7300 HF/50 MHz Transceiver Icom’s first RF Direct Sampling System entry-level SDR, the IC-7300 changed the HF transceiver landscape in 2015 with a highly af ordable, high-performance base/ portable HF radio. In addition to the classic SSB, CW, RTTY, AM and FM modes, updated firmware brings improved functionality including a simplified FT8 mode preset. Featuring excellent receiving characteristics, this 160-6 meter model includes a touchscreen display, real-time spectrum scope and high-resolution waterfall, touch-tuning on the spectrum scope, an intuitive MULTI-function knob, dual port USB control and audio, and much more. Building all this into a rugged and compact chassis was a landmark achievement—and the IC-7300 is still an easy-to-use choice for your portable or EMCOMM station. This versatile and budget-friendly radio delivers excellent performance, easy filter adjustments, and remarkable audio clarity. The IC-7300 provides SDR performance, the controls of a classic transceiver, and the modern simplicity of a touchscreen spectrum scope display. • Voice memory & memory keyer • Multi-function meter • SD card slot • Screen capture • 100 W (25 W AM) • Digital noise reduction Find the full details on the IC-7300 at DXEngineering.com.

Think again! IC-7300 owners who have always wanted to view the rig’s panadapter in an easier-to-see format can now do so with Radio Analog’s PTRX-7300 IF Interface Module and your external SDR receiver. Available exclusively in North America from DX Engineering, this impedance matched and buf ered device samples filtered receive and transmit IF signals from the IC-7300 for your SDR receiver spectrum scope display—without soldering, signal loss or disruption to the transceiver’s proper function. It installs easily into the IC-7300, adding an IF connector on the rig’s rear for connecting your SDR receiver to put the IC-7300’s own signals onto a much larger screen. You can even sync the tuning of the SDR to the IC-7300 with third-party rig control sof ware. Output and input connectors in this latest version are SMA, providing more robust, longlife connections and easy access to connectors at the rear panel without need for adapters. DX Engineering of ers the DX Patrol MKIV SDR Receiver (DXP-DX-PATROLMK4) to use as the PTRX-7300 panadapter companion for your PC, laptop, MAC or mobile device. LOG-PTRX-7300-V2 Panadapter Interface Module for IC-7300, Version 2 .........$299.99 IC-9700 VHF/UHF/1.2 GHz Transceiver Built for those who relish the challenge and rewards of VHF/UHF weak-signal operating, ICOM’s IC-9700 delivers the goods. It’s an RF direct sampling receiver for 2m and 70cm, with a single, down conversion for 23cm with an IF sampled receiver between 311 – 371MHz. Operators can expect a quiet receiver thanks to the rig’s DSP technology. The powerful PA provides 100W on 2m, 75W on 70cm, and 10W on 23cm. The IC-9700 comes with band-specific memory channels, and the ability to adjust band-specific receiver and transmit settings, including noise blanker, noise reduction, RF power, TX power limit, and TX delay. Here are just a few more of its many features: • Supports CW/AM/SSB/SM/RTTY/FM and D-STAR DV and Digital Data (DD) modes • DD mode provides 128 kbps data communication • Smooth satellite operation with normal/reverse tracking and 99 satellite channels • Real-time, high-speed spectrum scope and waterfall display • Dualwatch operation and full-duplex operation in the satellite mode • Audio Scope • 4.3" touch screen color TFT LCD • Main or Sub-Band Scope • Supports 2 band simultaneous reception • Dual D-STAR receive (decodes two voice streams simultaneously) Get more details by entering “9700” at DXEngineering.com.
