Ray from ICOM joins me to give us a sneak peek at the IC-PW2 and IC-718.

This is a pretty wild setup. Do you want a radio like the Lab599 TX500 with a 50+ watt amplifier, tuner and battery pack? theQRPstation might be something to take a look at. PLEASE NOTE: two thirds of this kit are fully bespoke radio equipment and the TX500 is about as close to bespoke as you can get. Prices match the level of workmanship that goes into it! https://theqrpstore.com/product/the-qrp-station/
