Should You Buy an Icom IC-705?

Post by VK7HH »

With the Icom IC-705 being a hot topic at the moment I ask the question, should you buy one? Why would you be interested in getting this newest radio from Icom?

I'm going to provide you with the reasons why I chose to purchase the IC-705 and whether you should or not.

I bought one, the FT817 was giving me the absolute shits.

Primary use - microwave IF.
