Hello Operators.
Earlier this month Icom introduced the Icom IC-705 at the Tokyo ham fair. The Icom ic-705 is an HF VHF UHF ALL-Mode QRP rig competing directly with rigs like Elecraft KX2, KX3, and the antiquated Yaesu FT-818.
in this video we'll talk about the expectations of modern field radio operators, and what they want or need from a modern field radio, like the ic 705. We'll also start planning a go kit, based on the IC 705, in preparation of its 2020 release.
The New Icom IC-705 HF/50Mhz/144Mhz/430Mhz SDR is as close to the perfect QRP radio as we've seen coming from commercial amateur radio manufacturers in nearly a decade. Will the Icom 705 completely kill Yaesu FT-818 sales? Well Elecraft finally be forced into updating the KX2 and KX3 for the Ham radio data mode operator?
The QRP portable ham radio world has just shifted squarely towards Icom!
