Icom changed the way hams think about mobile HC communication in 1995 with the introduction of the IC-706. Since then, the Icom Mobile HF radios have been the Performance HF mobile radio of choice. At the 2012 Tokyo Hamfair, Icom once again changed mobile HF communications by introducing the IC-7100. The ease of operation with fingertip control utilizing the intuitive touch screen interface with the power of 32-bit IF DSP.
Output power: 100W HF/50MHz
50W 144MHz
35W 430/440MHz
RX frequencies:
0.030-1999.99, 400-470
Receiver type: Triple conversion superhetrodyne
Touch screen interface
The angled radio control head features a large, multi-function, "touch screen"' dot-matrix LCD display that is positioned for easy view and operation. It also allows you to operate it while wearing gloves. The control head’s rear panel includes an internal speaker plus jacks for external speaker/headphones, CW key and microphone.
The innovative touch screen interface provides quick operation for setting and editing various functions and memories. Just tap the frequency, mode, filter, function etc, and quickly navigate through the changes you want. Additionally, the touch screen also allows you to input alphanumeric characters for call signs or memory channels.
With an excellent balance between cost and performance, the IC-7200 opens the door to the world of HF for new hams and is a great option for long experienced operators looking for a secondary rig to carry out into the field. The IC-7200’s rugged design includes a “rear bumper” that lets you stand the radio on its end and the buttons and knobs on the front panel protect against water intrusion.
Output power: 100W (25W AM)
RX Frequencies: 0.030-60.00

IC-7100
Overview
D-STAR ready
The IC-7100 provides D-STAR DV mode digital voice and low speed data communications. Add a third party GPS* and search the internal database based on your location. Additionally, the IC-7100 incorporates DR mode, which allows the user to control their D-STAR routing based on where they are talking “FROM” and where they want to talk "TO", including Reflector controls.
*External GPS receiver or manual data input required.
