Radio Wavz New RW705 Portable Antenna Kit - QRZ Forums
WEBJun 19, 2021 · Granted, with the 705 you get VHF and DStar, but the antenna in question doesn't support that, so we're back to KX2 levels of functionality. That said, I'm happy we have the option. When I got into radio 15 years ago, our only choices for portable QRP was the Icom 703 and Yaesu FT-817 (I think Elecraft was just getting to the market with their ...
ICOM IC-705 Review and Full Walk Through - QRZ Forums
WEBJan 13, 2021 · The 705 looks like another rig worthy of that activity. It's amazing, when I got into ham radio, there were maybe two purpose built QRP radios and one of them wasn't a great choice for field work. Now we have easily half a dozen multi-mode radios and as many more CW-specific ones. Batteries have improved too.

The protection you need for your IC-705? | Page 2 - QRZ Forums
WEBJul 28, 2021 · The RC1 and the ARK-705 look to be a very cool solution. I really like the fact that the ARK-705 fully encases the IC-705, which the Peovi doesn't. It kind of stinks that you can't use the RC1 without a modification, maybe they will sell a replacement support that does, and that comes standard on future ARK-705's.
A New Cage for your IC-705 - QRZ Forums
WEBDec 1, 2021 · The protective case appears helpful for stowing in something different than the backpack, and nicely positions the radio when on a table--such as a picnic table or rock. KM9G has another nice video on the actual Windcamp Ark 705 (in metal) which you might want to take a look at on Youtube. Based on these two videos.

ICOM IC-705: A slightly different perspective - QRZ Forums
WEBSep 24, 2019 · If the 705 draws the same amount of receive current as the IC 7300, as I expect it to do, you won't get up to 4 hours of operating time. At 800 ma on receive, which is what the 7300 consumes, with the on board battery supplied by Icom, you are lucky to get more than 2 hours and a few minutes of receive time.....and that's receive time only !

WEBAug 25, 2021 · I went with the IC-705 due to be familiar with the layout due to owning an IC-7300 and the newer technology.
