ICOM IC-7300

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An ICOM IC-7300 radio, tuned to the 20-meter band

The ICOM IC-7300 is a multimode 6-meter, 4-meter (ITU Region 1 only) 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 on 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 SDR technology instead of the older PLL-based 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]

Over 100,000 IC-7300 transceivers have been sold globally since 2015.[11]

In 2025, ICOM announced an "IC-7300MK2" version that updates the model to include modern features.[11]
