Icom revealed their first Software Defined Radio (SDR) HF transceiver, the IC-7300, on Saturday, August 22nd 2015, at the Tokyo Ham Fair.  The IC7300 sports HF+6m+4m coverage, it’s power, houses an eye-catching touchscreen TFT display and an includes an internal antenna tuner. 

·         High Quality Real-Time Spectrum Scope
·         RF Direct Sampling System
·         Class Leading Phase Noise Characteristics
·         Large Touch Screen Colour TFT LCD
·         Built-in Automatic Antenna Tuner
·         Easy-to-Hear Sound Quality
·         All modes,  HF + 50 MHz + 70 MHz

 

The IC-7300 transceiver, an aesthetically, attractive looking base station, features a 4.3 inch touch screen color TFT LCD screen with a high performance real time band scope.

A first for an Amateur radio transceiver, the IC-7300 uses a RF Direct Sampling System, a technology normally seen in Software Defined Radios. RF signals are mostly processed through the FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), rather than by physical devices enabling high performance real-time spectrum scope in a compact body.

The IC-7300 also includes a built-in integrated wide-frequency Automatic Antenna Tuner making the unit ideal for field operation. The radio provides 100 watts output power on HF/50MHz bands and 50 watts on 70MHz (European versions only).

So, it appears that more than 12 years after SDR technology became commercially available for amateur radio users and after dozens of smaller companies have used it successfully in their products (some of which are now on the third generation SDR products), one of "the big three" amateur radio equipment manufacturers finally decided to move their technology to the 21st century, too.

The IC-7300 is a medium sized-radio (240x238x95), and Icom appear to be advertising it it as a field radio. Has all the functions of a base-station, but can also be used mobile as it has an internal antenna tuner and kits compact size means it doesn't take much space in your car's boot while travelling.

The Icom IC-7300's display is a quality 4.3" TFT - and that is indeed necessary since it's an SDR, so you have the benefit of a large spectrum display.
