The latest DSP technologies developed for the IC-7800/7700 plus over 45 years of analog circuit expertise give the IC-7600 the performance advantage. The flagship&#39s lineage: dual DSP units, 3kHz 1st (roofing) filter, double-conversion superheterodyne, all direct descendents of the IC-7800/7700. ?Dual DSP: Separate DSP units for transmitter/receiver and spectrum scope. ?Ist IF Filter: Three built-in 1st IF (roofing) filters – 3, 6 and 15 kHz. ?Receiver System: The double-conversion superheterodyne system and the image rejection mixer improve inband IMD. ?Display: 5.8-inch WQVGA (400×240 pixels)ultra-wide viewing angle TFT display with long-life LED backlighting. ?Spectrum Scope: High-resolution real-time spectrum scope using a dedicated DSP unit. ?USB Connectors: Easily connect keyboards, flash memory drives and PCs. ?PSK Operation: Built-in PSK and RTTY operation with a USB keyboard – PC not required.

 

The IP3 performance of a radio can be improved by sacrificing sensitivity, but Icom considers this a poor choice. To achieve REAL high-performance, Icom reviewed all of the analog receiver circuitry. The IC-7700 employs mechanical relay BPF switching, a digitally tuned pre-selector, and three Hi-spec 1st IF filters (roofing filter) in a Dynamic range characteristics (in 14MHz band) clean and simple double-conversion superheterodyne design. By balancing the analog and DSP functions, the IC-7700 provides superior sensitivity simultaneously with a superb dynamic range of 110dB, and +40 dBm IP3 (even in USB mode with 2.4 kHz filter bandwidth).

 

The HF bands allow you to communicate over long distances covering many km even to the other side of the world. With the superior performance found in the IC-718 such as wide dvnamic range, high C/N ratio, and full duty operation you will find making these contacts easy. Experience the combination of the latest RF and digital technology, along with the size and simplified operation. You will see the IC-718 will be the most practical rig you will ever own.
