7300 02 Direct Sampling Shortwave Radio Black

this radio is Very easy to tune and work and fast.

Great radio perfect for my needs. Arrived in perfect condition faster than expected.

I am still evaluating this transceiver but am extremely impressed with its capability. I really like the double passband tuning feature and am learning to appreciate the waterfall spectrum display. I am a CW operator and the built in iambic keyer works well at my 20-wpm plus speed. The auto-tuner range is smaller than I would like, only 3:1 swr, but it tunes all my antennas. Voice quality in receive is excellent. (I am not an ICOM rep, agent. or employee!) Amazon does not give enough specifications, so here are important ones: RCV general coverage 30 kHz to 74.8 MHz; transceive; all of us Ham-bands in that frequency range; modes and power, 100w CW, 100w SSB, 100w FM, 100w TTY, 100w digital, 25w am. Interfaces with computer for other capabilities. Amazon ships this transceiver with an 80-page basic manual. You need it! There are dual and multi-purpose switches and frequently switches open menus to open menus. Some functions are touchscreen controlled which also opens menus. Thats why I am still evaluating!

Excellent radio. Well worth money.

Top of the line radio! I've had this unit for approx. 2 weeks. I am using this primarily as a shortwave receiver. There is a bit of a learning-curve involved, getting used to where all the controls are. But it is a superb radio. Great sensitivity, great functionality. The auto-notch and dual passband tuning features are wonderful. Nearly unlimited filter setups are possible. And the spectrum scope is AWSOME! This may be considered an "entry level" rig, but it as all the top features anyone could want.

I wants the Mk2 but it was my mistake. Unit works amazing. Learning the interface takes time and it would be cool to be able to build a custom meter screen but overall I am very pleased.

This is such a great radio. It does so many things that, Just didn't recognize what it all could do. You can really enjoy this radio, it can do so much more than to what it was expected to do.

This was my first radio after getting my general license. Set up was easy, the menus are easy to navigate, and good audio quality. Within a week of having this radio I was making DX contacts. I would recommend this radio to anybody wanting a solid, reliable, HF transceiver. It may not be the absolute best at any one area, but for the money it’s hard to beat overall performance for the same price.
