INQ

TRI-BAND TRANSCEIVER (2m, 70cm, 23cm)

144, 430 and 1200 MHz All Mode Transceiver including Satellite, DV and DD Modes

The IC-9700 is an all mode Tri-band transceiver, covering 2 m, 70 cm, and 23 cm. In addition to the traditional SSB, AM, FM, CW, and RTTY modes, the transceiver also incorporates D-STAR (Digital Smart Technology for Amateur Radio) DV and DD modes.

A full featured Satellite mode is built-in! There are three antenna connectors, one each for 144, 430 and 1200 MHz.
