U17444 Never Used ICOM IC-7300 HF/50MHz Transceiver

This radio is in excellent, never used shape. It has never been used or operated with in any way and remains sealed in the box. This radio comes with all of the factory inclusions and comes within the original box. Even the box itself is pristine and this unit makes for an excellent buy! This radio was won at a hamfest and was never taken out of the box

Radio is covered under our 30 day warranty.

One of the Most Innovative HF Radios Available Today

Amateur radio always embraces new technology and the way receivers are designed. The IC-7300 is no different. In an industry first the IC-7300 features RF, Direct Sampling typical only found in top of the line radio but now in an entry level HF radio. Because of the ability to digitize RF early in the receiver stage noise is reduced. Something IF radios struggle to achieve. Compared to other entry level radios, the IC-7300 easily out performs all others and is in a class all by itself.

Typical Output Power: 100 Watts (25 Watts on AM)
Receiver Architecture: Direct sampling - FPGA Processing
Reception Frequencies: 0.030 MHz - 74.80 MHz

The IC-7300 and RF Direct Sampling

Noisy IF (Intermediate Frequency) transformation architecture is eliminated in the IC-7300. Direct RF sampling is utilized instead. In this process RF signals are directly converted to digital data. An extremely streamlined process. The digital data is then sent to an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array) for processing. The FPGA reduces the need for complex circuitry and simplifies the RF path. A simplified RF path is vital to low noise, clear signals, and better weak signal reception.

Third Order Intercept Point (IP3) is greatly improved and allows the operator to more easily copy weak signals that is often covered up by a strong, adjacent signal. The use of an analog to digital converter (AD) reduces signal distortion and in some cases eliminate it. DX operators will appreciate the ability to copy weak signals others won't be able to hear.
