GigaParts sent me the all-new Icom IC-7300 MK2 on loan.

This video is sponsored by GigaParts.

The IC-7300 has earned its reputation as one of the most dependable HF radios ever made. Now with the IC-7300 MK2, Icom refines an already proven platform instead of reinventing it — exactly how good radios should evolve.

In this video, I unbox the IC-7300 MK2, walk through the initial setup process, and demonstrate the CW decode feature on live signals straight from the shack. No fluff, no marketing speak — just practical operation and first impressions.
