Radio Today Guide to the ICOM IC-7610

Within a few short months of the launch the ICOM IC-7610 radio, it became a best-seller and one of the most popular radios on the market today. This SDR-based radio has simply become the measure by which other radios are being judged. However, getting the most from this radio, as it is for many new radios, is increasingly difficult. In "Radio Today Guide to the ICOM IC-7610," Andrew Barron, ZL3DW, an acknowledged SDR expert, highlights the myriad options available to users of this fabulous radio.

On opening the box of the IC-7610, you'll be excited and surprised by how many settings and controls there are to learn. This should not deter you, as this is where this informative book comes in. From the first steps with the panadapter display and its 'FIX' spectrum display mode (where you can see the whole band or just a section of the band, such as the CW segment), the book guides you. The biggest advantage the IC-7610 offers over its rivals at a similar price level is the two completely independent receivers, so Andrew explains the changes this makes to the way you operate the radio. The touch screen controls are explained so you get to know the radio through using it and through delving into every control and menu setting. There are tips on troubleshooting, guides to particular modes of operation, and much more.
