The ICOM IC-7300 MK2 is the evolution of the legendary IC-7300, one of the most successful SDR transceivers in history. It retains its direct sampling architecture but incorporates significant improvements in performance, connectivity, efficiency, and usability, making it an ideal device for demanding amateur radio operators. It offers cleaner reception, reduced phase noise, new modern connectivity options (HDMI, USB-C, LAN), and advanced tools such as an integrated CW decoder.
This transceiver includes support for the 5 MHz and 70 MHz bands and is capable of transmitting on the 4m and 6m bands.
The IC-7300MK2 has a power output of 100 W and offers a variety of modes, including USB, LSB, CW, AM, FM, RTTY, and PSK-31.
Key Features:
- FPGA-based direct sampling SDR technology for cleaner signal.
- 4.3” color touchscreen with real-time spectrum and waterfall display.
- HDMI™ output for external monitor with spectrum/waterfall display and audio.
- Built-in CW decoder, no PC required.
- Advanced connectivity: USB-C with dual virtual ports, integrated LAN for remote operation.
- RX Antenna IN/OUT (SMA) for filters, preamplifiers, and dedicated RX antennas.
- Low standby power consumption (0.7 A), reducing heat and improving efficiency.
- Compatible with HF, 50 MHz, 70 MHz, and 5 MHz (depending on the EU version).
- Built-in automatic antenna tuner.
Improvements of the ICOM IC-7300 MK2 over the IC-7300:
- +12 dB RMDR (from ~97 dB to ~105 dB).
Significantly lower phase noise (≈ −139 dBc/Hz). - New HDMI™ port for external monitor (not available in the IC-7300).
- Integrated CW decoder (not present in IC-7300).
- USB-C with dual virtual ports (IC-7300 uses USB-B).
- Integrated LAN for remote operation without a server PC.
- 23% lower standby power consumption (0.7 A vs. 0.9 A).
- Dedicated RX Antenna IN/OUT.
