"The Radio Today Guide to the ICOM IC-9700" is the third in this series of books aimed at getting the most out of your radio. It's written in the same style as the other books, a practical guide to enjoy the full flavor of possibilities with the groundbreaking IC-9700. The radio is the first full power, multi-mode, VHF/UHF amateur radio transceiver to be based on SDR technology. It's a transceiver for VHF and UHF DX operation, working satellites, EME, and repeater operation, supporting both traditional FM repeaters and D-Star digital. Author Andrew Barron, ZL3DW, an acknowledged SDR expert, highlights the myriad options available to ICOM users—many of which have never been available on VHF/UHF transceivers before.
As usual, this book does not duplicate the manuals which describe each button, function, and control; it's a "how to do it" book with easy-to-follow step-by-step instructions. All of the great new features included in the IC-9700 can make it quite a complicated radio to configure and operate, but this 160-page paperback covers every control and menu setting and explains how to get the most from this truly remarkable radio.
