The Icom IC-7600 covers the 160 to 6 meter amateur bands. It utilizes IF-DSP technology and selectable roofing filters at 3kHz, 6kHz and 15kHz. Like the IC-7700 and IC-7800, the IC-7600 uses dual 32-bit floating-point Texas Instruments DSP chips with one for the radio and the other for the spectrum scope. This display is a 5.8 inch color WQVGA LCD.

Status: Currently on the market as of 2017, still in production. Replaces the Icom IC-756 Family of transceivers.

  • Receive Range 1: 0.030-60.000 MHz
  • Receive System: Single receiver
  • Dual Watch: Yes
  • Roofing Filter Capability: Yes
  • Roofing Filter Bandwidth: 15/6/3kHz
  • Third Order Intercept (IP3): Over 30 dBm
  • Transceiver Input Voltage: 13.8 Vdc
  • Transceiver Maximum Current: 23.0 A
  • Antenna Ports: 2
  • Computer Connection Type: USB or CI-V interface
  • Digital Mode Audio Input/Output: USB or 8-pin DIN
  • Voice Synthesizer Capability: Yes
  • Radio Dimensions: Width 13.375", Height 4.563", Depth: 11.000"
  • Weight: 22.000 lbs.
  • SSB/CW Maximum Power: 100 W
  • SSB/CW Minimum Power: 2 W
  • AM Maximum Power: 30 W
  • AM Minimum Power: 1 W

Ver.2.00 Firmware

Tip: The first time you update, thoroughly read the Section 14 (UPDATING THE FIRMWARE) of the IC-7600’s instruction manual and information for firmware 2.00 on Icom Co. Support page. The firmware can be updated using a USB-flash drive.

Some new features:

  • point and click the mouse for Click-and-Listen receiver control.
  • Waterfall screens
  • additional functions added to the spectrum scope
  • APF AF Level setting
  • CI-V commands for antenna control, logging software and RIT/DELTA-TX
  • TX Delay (HF/50M) settings for variable delay time
  • Standby setting to remotely turn ON the IC-7600 using the REMOTE jack.
  • MOS-FET is now the default value of SEND Relay Type
