Icom IC-705, IC-7300 and IC-9700 Waterfall Setup for Weak Signals

Post by VK7HH »

In this video, I show the waterfall display options I use on the Icom IC-705 to find weak signal stations. This not only works for the IC-705 but also the IC-7300 and IC-9700

I tried your settings on the IC7610 as well - pretty much the same results, except that VBW is a variable on the main receiver rather than in the settings area. I change the variables every week or so, as I get "bored" with the current settings - a change as good as a holiday, especially in this current lockdown (or is lockup?)!

Cheers

Lock up Peter :)

Glad to know it works on the IC7610. I'm sure there are a multitude of different settings but I found those ones the best for my eyes and pulling out any signals from the noise. I found a US station later that I could hardly hear in the speaker because of it!
