From a silent key
IC-R75 HF+50 MHz All mode Communcations Receiver
The IC-R75 covers a frequency range that’s wider than other HF receivers; 0.03–60.000000 MHz*. This wide frequency coverage allows you to listen to a variety of communications including marine communications, amateur radio, short wave radio broadcasts and more.
*Guaranteed 0.1–29.99 MHz and 50–54 MHz only
High stability receiver circuit
Icom’s latest wide band technology provides highly stable receive sensitivity over the entire receive frequency range. The IC-R75 makes it easy to catch communications worldwide.
Superior dynamic range
A wide dynamic range of more than 100 dB*1, 104.5 dB*2 for 14 MHz band, 102.5 dB*2 for 50 MHz band, and a well-designed triple conversion system help minimize image and spurious responses for better signal fidelity.
*1 Not guaranteed.
*2 Not guaranteed; When PREAMP OFF; CW narrow 500 Hz bandwidth; 100 kHz channel spacing
Twin PBT capability
The PBT (passband tuning) function narrows and moves the IF passband at two stages to efficiently eliminate interfering signals.
DSP capabilities
DSP (Digital Signal Processor) filtering in the AF stage is available with the optional UT- 106 DSP UNIT*.
* Already installed with some versions
Noise reduction
Pulls desired AF signals from noise. Outstanding S/N ratio is achieved, providing clean audio in SSB, AM and FM. Pull weak signals right out of the noise.
Automatic Notch filter
This automatically minimizes beat signals and protects the receive signal. Also, the notch frequency is automatically adjusted to follow interfering beat signals—reducing interference from RTTY signals during SSB operation for example.
FM mode standard
Unlike many other HF/50 MHz receivers there is no need to install an additional unit for FM mode reception on the 29 and 50 MHz bands.
Flexible filter selection
Up to two optional filters* can be installed, providing flexible band width selection and filter combinations.
*One each for 9 MHz and 455 kHz IF stage.
Alphanumeric readout
The function display has an alphanumeric readout that indicates up to 8-character memory names for easy recognition. Selectable RF gain/squelch control
The RF gain and/or squelch control can be set to the [SQL] control in set mode to match your operating preference. Other outstanding features…
– Compact body
– Digital bar S-meter with peak hold
– Front mounted speaker for easy listening
– Internal clock with ON/OFF, sleep timer
– Numeric keypad for direct frequency or memory channel input
– Attenuator
– 2-level preamp
– Selectable AGC (FAST/SLOW/OFF)
– Noise blanker
– 99 memories plus 2 program scan edges
– Ample scanning functions available
– CW pitch control and CW reverse mode
There is no original box or manual for this receiver but I will print a manual off on the office colour laser printer
I see these advertised from £410 to £500
Has to be worth £350 (Proceeds to the family of silent key)
