FEATURES
• RF Direct Sampling System
The IC-9700 employs an RF direct sampling system. RF
signals are directly converted to digital data in the ADC,
and then processed in the FPGA. This system is a leading
technology, marking an epoch in amateur radio.
The 1200 MHz band uses a downconversion IF sampling.
• Real-Time Spectrum Scope
The spectrum scope is class-leading in resolution,
sweep speed and dynamic range. When you touch the
scope screen on the intended signal, the touched area is
magnified. The large 4.3 inch color TFT touch LCD offers
intuitive operation.
• D-STAR operation
The IC-9700 has the D-STAR Repeater (DR) function.
Moreover, by using the DD mode, you can browse the
Internet through a repeater station.
• Satellite operation
The IC-9700 has 99 satellite memory channels for both
uplink and downlink frequencies and mode.
• "IP+" Function
The IP Plus function improves 3rd order intercept point
(IP3) performance. When a weak signal is received
adjacent to strong interference, the AD converter is
optimized against signal distortion.
• A 4.3 inch touch panel color display
• Multi-function control for easy settings
