Icom IC-7600

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.

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

MARS / Extended Transmit and Receive

MARS/CAP Mod: IC-7600

RX Frequency Coverage Expansion

• remove D52, D53, D54, and D55

TX Frequency Coverage Expansion

• remove D56, D57, D58, and D59

offers: 1.6 - 30MHz and 51 - 54 MHz

5MHz Band Operation

• remove D62

Amplifier Connection

The ALC input level must be in the range 0 V to – 4 V. The transceiver does not accept positive volt-age.

ACC set mode

Send Relay Type: Selects the switching relay type for [RELAY] from Lead and MOSFET. Select the suitable relay type when connecting a non-Icom linear amplifier.

• Lead - Use mechanical relay. (16 V DC/0.5 A max.; default)
• MOS-FET - Use semiconductor type relay. (250 V/200 mA max.)

The IC-7600 can key an amplifier circuit up to 250Vdc at 200 mA, select the correct keying mode via the ACC set menu.
