    Woops!!! You were on split, TX on 14.100. I did that the other day after working a DXpedition on split. Came back a hour later and couldn't understand why no one would reply to me. After several minutes I happened to look at the radio while I was transmitting and realized what I had done. Mike KC3OSD

    Lowering the RF gain and using headphones or an external speaker makes a huge difference in these and older vintage radios. You see tons of youtube videos with the RF Gain full open and I always wonder why the hell do that lol ... you're not going to miss any weak stations by lowering the RF gain to a correct a level and you reduce that background static hash noise. In many cases you never have to use the DSP unless you have strong local noise.

    I have Yeasu's FT-450at...
    Same "class" chassis.
    Love it. Those little Icoms are a tough and boast a nice set of features.
    Very under appreciated rigs!

    Turning off the preamp will give you better signal to noise performance. You're picking up a lot of atmospheric noise in the background. Switching to AGC-slow will smooth out the audio.

    $859.00 in DX enginnering is overpriced in my opinion. Better deal is to get a 7300 for a little more with discount. Actually, ham radio new stuff is way overpriced these days.

      People just buy it used. It's just the way of the world. Ebay sales on these radios are booming

      It's dirt cheap compared to commercial gear.
