This Radio is AMAZING! The Icom IC-705 Unboxing and First Thoughts!

This Radio is AMAZING! The Icom IC-705 Unboxing and First Thoughts!

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!

I bought my Icom IC-705 from Strictly Ham:

Quick Tips #2 – Building Antenna Links

Quick Tips #2 - Building Antenna Links

There are lots of ways to build links for Linked Dipoles, End Fed Halfwave antennas, etc. This is one of my favorites. Simple, robust, and easy to build.

Materials:
– 2.0mm Banana Plugs: https://amzn.to/31IIl7h
– Heat Shrink (w/adhesive): https://amzn.to/32FnNvA
– Super Glue: https://amzn.to/3lJdC1Q

Subscribe or check back in a month or two for an antenna build or two putting these links to use.

Alright, with the intro and outro, I admit – I took 37 seconds for this one. But it was worth it, wasn’t it?
