Making Contacts and Testing the Icom IC-705 on HF (7 MHz)

Post author By admin
Post date September 15, 2020

Just a short video with some contacts made with my Icom IC-705 on 40 metres (7 MHz).

I was only using the internal battery and the antenna was a half wave end fed wire only a few feet off the ground.

Soon I’ll be upgrading the antenna to allow working on 80m and getting it much higher, but not bad for a first run. You’ll even notice a bit of DX from some US stations.

WSJT-X Setup on the Icom IC-705

Post author By admin
Post date September 9, 2020

The Icom IC-705 has not been added to the official list of radios supported by WSJT-X. In this video however, I will show you how you can set the radio up to work with WSJT-X and perhaps other digital modes.

As of the date of this video, the latest version of WSJT-X is v2.2.2.
https://physics.princeton.edu/pulsar/K1JT/wsjtx.html

Future releases will no doubt support the IC-705 and when that occurs you will not need to change the CI-V address as per this video however all other settings will still be relevant.

Thanks to Kevin VK4UH on the CI-V setting

Post author By admin
Post date September 2, 2020

Today my Icom IC-705 arrived on my doorstep. I decided to get the camera out as quick as possible as I wanted to take the radio out, but not before unboxing to see what you get.

In Australia we have been privileged to be one of the first to receive the IC-705. In this video I give my first thoughts and unbox the radio. Please let me know in the comments what you think and if you will be purchasing the newest radio from Icom!

Meet the Icom IC-705! Presentation and Hands on Review

Post author By admin
Post date August 31, 2020

The Icom IC705 is the latest offering from ICOM and continues their range of SDR based transceivers which include the IC-7300 and IC-9700.

The Icom IC-705 is a light portable rig that covers from DC to 70cm and is either internal or external battery powered. It has the same touch screen interface as the Icom 7300 & 9700.

The units have only just landed in Australia and are already proving to be very popular with Strictly Ham shipping many units this week.
https://www.strictlyham.com.au/

Justin VK7TW will be demonstrating his unit including the Icom LC-192 backpack & bluetooth headset. Come and see if the IC-705 really is a massive leap ahead on the FT817/818!
