Icom IC9700 Unboxing
Просмотров 8805 лет назад
This is the new Icom IC9700 that I am unboxing today. This is my first video uploaded on RUclips, hope you enjoy!
Do both of these get 111.75 usb?
Is the fan noisey?
Stupid question. Can both of these radios do UHF and VHF? Also you said it can do Dstar, does that mean it can also do DMR? Sorry I’m totally new and just got my tech license and I want to get a really good radio that I can grow into and keep for years. I plan on getting my general soon as well. Thanks for the video it was great and informative.
I love Icom. The only thing I don't like about these 2 is that they have ALC's
Why does that matter? Is that a big issue? Sorry new to radio and I’m trying to figure out as much as I can.
v.nice setup, i like how tidy your radios are as well. Thanks for uploading.
thank you for your first video of your IC9700 ! Watching it a bit later, but will check out your other vids - we all have to start somewhere !
Great video...what antenna tuner are you running on the 7300?? Thanks
The Tuner is a LDG 200 proii. Works very well with my 80/40M dipole and 6 band Hexbeam.
I’m saving up for one of these but there’s no immediate rush because I’m still working on my license. I was looking at the IC-7300 but this one is only about four or $500 more so I think I will go that route. And to you I say hello from Central Florida.
Good luck on your licence Alan. Look forward to hearing you on the air soon mate. 73
Im pretty new to Ham, got my Tech several months ago....just passed my General two weeks ago. With that, I really like my Icom 2730a in the truck. So why is the 9700 so much, especially when compared to the Yaesu 991-a? Are there some advantages to the icom that Im missing?
Congratulations on getting your General. The 9700 is one of those radios that will be used on a desk top. Might be just a little to big for portable operations but it also being a SDR and a all mode radio adds to the price. Then you add the 23cm band creeps it up even further. Pretty sure the 991A is only HF and 6 meters. Where the 9700 is 2M, 70cm and 23cm bands. Not to compare brands or functions but any of the modern radios now are just brilliant. Your 2730A is a great mobile rig. I have its older brother the 2720H. Still going strong.
vk2xjm ....thats what is making me ask the question, because the 991a is an all mode, including 2m and 70cm. Seems like a lot of radio for the price point
@@jay-rus4437 Yes, you are correct. It has 2 and 70cm with the 991A. I stand corrected. As far as the price point goes, it must come down to that the 9700 is a SDR radio....Maybe, but it also has 23cm built in. Apparently that band alone costs $$$. I got told once, "If you want to play, You got to pay!!" Seems to be the story of my life!!
@@vk2xjm What do you mean by it’s an SDR radio also?
Great job with the video! 73 Mike N2MWL
what do you think of the IC-7610, or would you prefer the IC-7300 as a companion to the IC-9700, I looking at upgrading my IC-706MKIIG and would like to know what you think would be a good match to the IC-9700. thanks. de VK3HAU.
I like the new look of the Icom's, time to upgrade the 706mkIIg..
Does the ic-9700 have extended receive, or does it only cover the ham bands?
Not that I know of at this stage.
Only the ham bands. and no 6 meter either.
VY TU fr the video! good comparison. warm greeting! 73 de RK3T
Great video,thx
can I use an IC 7300 or IC 9700 option to use external monitor or an external panadpater? 73
Word of advice. Never shoot video vertical.. It not how people view TV or movies. It very distracting and takes away from the video.
Thanks mate. Forgive me, it is my first video ever on RUclips. Still learning.
Absolute like it so I know that to save for ;) 73 m0wao
Hello! Is there a crossband feature on the transceiver IC-9700?
Beautiful pair!! Going to wait for a bit and get some rebate reductions.
@2:38 You wont have Comp in FM mode either I dont think. SSB you will though.
Your floor noise on 20M is horrific :)
mine sok.
Thanks Jason...Awaiting mine in VK6. Landscape for the next video please. Regards Will VK6UU
More! Need part 2...
The sides of your video are missing.
Thanks.👍
