Icom 7300 SWR Graph, Feature Demonstration
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 бер 2019
- One of the cool features in the IC-7300 is the SWR graph, so you can visually see how your antenna is tuned across a portion or across the entire band you are operating on. No need for an analyzer to find out where your antenna is tuned.

Just got my 7300 and am setting it up. Saving several of your videos to refer back to when I am in front of the radio. Thanks for all the hard work!
Thanks for the video I have the same radio and love learning more about it.
Nice video, Eric!
I love the swr function on all my Icom Trx. I use it, since I bought my IC-703 couple years ago.
It's wonderful especially while SOTA and backpack tours, when you are trying to Limit your weight on equipment.
I have the IC-7300 also and I'm fully satisfied with it.

Very nice video Eric! 👍📻⚡ Thanks for sharing & cool contact!
Thanks Eric for the video, that was a very helpful one, never really new how to use that feature, please keep them coming.73's Trevor ZL1UTH
Thanks for the video. Now this makes sense how to use it with my 7300. I also have a Icom 7100 with this feature as well, which will be perfect since I just put it in my car to run mobile this week. Now I can easily check the SWR of the very old hamstick antennas my Dad (SK) gave me many years ago. 73 de KN3A
HamRadioConcepts, You're right on the money... I NEVER even tried this function. Dummy, dummy, dummy me. Didn't realize it was so darned simple. Thanks. I really mean it. Thanks a LOT. ROFL de KQ2E

Great vid, Eric! Thanx!
8:24 Congratulations on your Extra license upgrade!
Very helpful video. Thanks.
Great video. I had Bob at HRO show me this but now I an do it. I have to see is thhs on my 9700 and my 705.
Great 10m contact OM
Good video 👍
Amazing!!!!!
Great video, Eric. I am taking my Exam for my Tech ticket May 5 (earliest test date in my area). Been taking practice exams for a few months now, past 2 weeks I have been scoring anywhere from 75%-80%. Talked to a buddy, who is a ham radio operator, he said now that I scored 80% I should be taking 3 tests a day until I reach 90%, once I reach 90% you should be all set to take the exam. So any other advice would be greatly appreciated, Thanks. Have a Great Night. 73s
Very nice and informative videos just one question do you drop your power output while ptt or just plain 100watts? Thank you for your reply 73
For some reason my IC-7300 lost the SWR config while playing with the SWR graphic and runing out of the frecuency as shown in the video, any idea how to set it back to normal ?
Another great vidio...do you think you might be on over Christmas as would love to give u a shout out on my 7300 her from the uk
so on the band where your SWR was through the roof, Could the ICOM 7300 Tuner get it below a decent range?
Hey Eric.... great vid. I've actually used that feature on my 7300.
Question! I read that when using the swr feature. The power setting should be set to only a couple of watts???
Please chime in.

I never changed my power, and I have accurate readings. I think the SWR graph function will limit the power output I would think.. I havent looked at the power meter when I did the test.
Quick Question, I have the IC-7300 and on the display right below band display I keep getting a flashing "OVF". Sometimes it is solid and a lot of times it flashes on and off. I tried tuning the frequency which the frequency did get tuned but I still get the flashing "OVF". What is wrong and how to I fix this? Have you ever experienced that on your IC-7300?
I wonder if an UNUN would give a 1:1 SWR with 1000 feet of antenna wire.

I'm surprised to see it going into the red at 1.5 SWR
Just got my 7300 and tried this multiple times..I am not getting no bars showing after each key up…can someone please help as to why..
Could be your swr is totally flat, that's why you would see no bars...
For the 7300 was a good hf antenna under 400$
Where is Javier? He should have posted a comment on here! ;-)
Costa Rica. Good guy and very active on 10m.
Интересная функция трансивера
I had a 7300 but I got rid of it had quality issues I bought an ft991a will never buy an icom again
Well i was a Yaesu guy for my whole career until I had to endure their customer service, and I will never switch back to Yaesu again, so everyone has their own feelings.. 73
@@HamRadioConcepts I totally agree we have our own opinions and I respect that
Good job and video but you have to cut your nails I think. Just a joke. :)
Ahh the baby Icom. Yes, it is saying the rubbish in-built antenna tuner is setup for the bandyou were talking on and not higher up. Seriously my 7300 is back in the box months ago. These 7300's are popular with the pirates who are too stupid to get a license, they buy them second hand and sit on CB channels, 27.385 LSB and 27.555 USB and normal CB. I've even heard many calling on the HAM bands using other peoples call-signs. How sad is that they are so stupid they can't pass a simple test. Ofcom in the UK won't go out and shut them down anymore. The Icom 7610 is far superior and more sensitive. Antenna tuner is still a bit rubbish but I found if you switch both these radios to emergency mode where the output is halved to 50W that you get a really good SWR all over the bands with the in in-built tuner. Try that if you haven't already. Good video demo for those that find the very easy to use 7300 hard. God help them if they tried the 7610. I keep all my radios I don't sell them. That 817ND you sold, should have kept that! It's a fantastic wee radio. The 818ND is not much different. I'm not really into VHF/UHF unless mobile to use the repeaters. I love HF.
I wasn't using the antenna tuner at all....
Those bloody pesky cb,ers with there ruddy hf sets, i had to put work in to get my licence , they shouldnt be using those on cb , it amazes me how so many ham licence holders get upset about cb radio users who buy a hf radio, like it really affects there life so bad, get real pal if thats all you have to moan about then you must be a very sad little lonely man indeed . Just be glad that people are still using radio in any shape or form as this is a hobby thats needs as many as we can get. People like you are the reason that ham radio is on its knees today !
