An ICOM IC-7300 Radio Tuned to the 20 Meter Band

The ICOM IC-7300 is a multimode 6 meter, 4 meter and HF base station amateur radio transceiver.[1] The IC-7300 was announced to the public at the Japan Ham Fair in 2015.[2] The radio has 100 watts output on CW, SSB, and FM modulations and 25 watts of output in AM.[3] Although not the first software-defined radio on the market, the IC-7300 was the first mass-produced mainstream amateur radio to use technology instead of the older superheterodyne transceiver design.[4] Designed to replace the older IC-746PRO the IC-7300 is smaller and significantly lighter than its predecessor.[5] Like many other radios of its class the IC-7300 has an internal antenna tuner and contains an internal audio card accessible over USB.[1][5] This allows the radio to be used for popular digital modes such as PSK31, Winlink, and FT8.[6][7] The radio has received praise for its easy to use menus, large readable screen, and excellent audio processing.[1][8][9][10]
