    Without a few digital modes what good is it? Don't tell me about the air band 😒

      So you are discounting one of the main things it’s designed for? Not everything is digital or wanted by everyone. It’s a niche product for people who don’t want a Uniden.

    Over €500.- for this without SW, SSB, 4M,23cm ? I paid for my R30 just €100.- more.

      Well £450 in the UK. The IC-R30 I think was £579. Also they are different beasts for different jobs. This does have a colour screen, full coverage on both VFO’s/Receivers, Bluetooth, Dual Band Record, 2000 memories and other functions that make it pretty useful for Airband, Marine and 2m/70cm bands. I agree it’s not cheap but then the R-30 came out before Covid/Inflation/Plant fires etc. The cost of everything HAS gone up!

    The performance will be interesting. The Icom R20 which I have is ok on civil airband but is next to useless on the military frequencies. I have an AOR 8200 mk3 which performs well on both civil and the military bands. If the new IC-R15 is ok on both then I will most probably buy one as it does offer some nice features.

    Hi Ian….eagerly awaiting next episode….be very interesting to your thoughts on sensitivity regarding this and the Icom ic-r30 on receiving airband…..I know the r-30 was excellent I sold mine and ended up purchasing a Whistler trx1 which I am pleased with but since I saw this I’ve been toying getting one just for airband….best regards

    Got mine a few weeks ago. It only seems to decode a bit under 50% of commercial band digital signals. Otherwise it's a pretty good piece of kit. With CW mode and my best antenna I can pick up remnants of signals over 50 miles away, and even one 35 miles away with 200m of hill between me and that transmitter.

    Is'nt this totally useless though for any digital PMR in the UK ? Police etc are all scrambled also

    • @ianconnor2662
      @ianconnor2662 9 лет назад

      Its designed for dPMR modes but not some higher tier digital modes like Tetra used by the emergency services and trunking which is now little used in the UK.

  • @ianconnor2662
    @ianconnor2662 9 лет назад

    Digital PMR (dPMR) as a mode is included. However the Police and other emergency services use Tetra which isn't. In the UK the Police will be moving away towards the mobile phone network as their back bone in the next few years.
