Thanks for the vid.. I've been thinking about the bt89 for my 705.. Will probably pull the trigger in the near future.. good job showing the variety.. kevin k0klb
Nice Vid... I have the Blue Parrot B250 XTS hooked up to my IC-705 Once it was paired with the IC-705 I found that the Bigger Power Button Toggles PTT On/Off with a quick press...
Great video. Will order the BT=89. Would like to know what software you are using with the ICOM IC-705. Would like to see an additional video to see what the capabilities are. Thanks for sharing.
Great job on vid bro!!!! I’m liking the BT89. Works awesome. I also got the Icom Bluetooth which is ptt and you can hook headphones or external speaker. A bit pricy but works well.
I think the Bose could be about the same. I should have spent more time balancing the audio better. But I've ALWAYS gotten good reports with the BT-89. Did you get the qyt model or ??
I've recently been trying to find a BT speaker that reproduces what I hear from the 705 speaker. Bose Soundlink II - fail (terrible audio quality), Philips TAH5205 similarly bad, Apple Airpod Pro - same again. Considering all these work fine with everything else I've ever tried I have to ask myself WTF are Icom playing at?
The specs say it's got a 1400 mAh battery with a 50-hour "work time". With a 40-hour "standby" It has given me 36 hours of use before I felt it needed to be charged. I would say I get at least 40 hours or better of actual "standby" time. Also, the battery held well in storage for over a year. Hope this helps. I am lousy at answers.

I got the qyt model. It is hot like you had mentioned but works well and get good audio reports. Very happy with it
can i ask,,, what software do I see running showing the IC-705, freq, meters controls, etc? Thanks for your video I'm working on getting this going.
That is the RS BA Icom software. Go with WF View instead OM

That is an epic beard
As much as the CQ abides the beard is the way
What’s the standby time on the BT-89? I use the icom vs-3 and it ain’t very long.
