Got a Icom IC-7300 you want to use on digital? I will show you exactly how to setup your Icom IC-7300 for use with WSJT-X and other digital modes such as FT8. These are my settings on my radio that work perfectly for WSJT-X.

*See below details on CI-V control and Split*
The baudrate you use in WSJT-X is dependant on if CI-V USB Port is set to Unlink from [Remote] or Link to [Remote].
Link to [Remote] = Use the CI-V Baud Rate on Page 1 of the CI-V menu
Unlink from [Remote = Use the CI-V USB Baud Rate on Page 2 of the CI-V Menu
*When setting Split in WSJT-X*
"Either method (Rig or Fake it) will result in a cleaner transmitted signal, by keeping the Tx audio always in the range 1500 to 2000 Hz so that audio harmonics cannot pass through the Tx sideband filter"

Great video. Really well done! I was still having problems with my ICOM 7300 set up this weekend. Was working previously but not after latest ICOM software update. Then I came upon the FT8 preset! Loaded this mode and the ICOM is perfect. Just thought I would add this as one push of the button sets the whole radio up to be optimised ! Cheers. Mark M7MSR (p.s. I should add that the FT8 button of course sets the radio up for all the modes that WSJT-X et al offers ! )

I'm currently running an FT-891, whenever I manage to get myself a 7300, it's going to take me a very long time to learn everything. the FT-891 is primarily a mobile / portable radio, so it's very menu-driven. It took me about a month to learn the whole thing, so I'd imagine it's probably going to take me about 2 months to learn a 7300. Also, this video has simply reinforced the fact that I need a 7300 lol... 73 de W8IJC!

@G0ogs 2 года назад

I used to own a 7300 so I appreciate its attributes and probably all you need in the real world. But I do think if you use it with a pc like with data modes the consideration for sdr is a must. My sdr as a lot more going on with a wider range of parameters for individual use. Incidentally my sdr costs the same as 7300 so you don’t need deep pockets to realise it.

@wjess3569 Год назад

Great videos, Hayden.. I have one question... at the moment... In this video you show finding a sort of clear spot where the red and green come together to form a box.. I "assume" that means you plan to send a CQ on that freq and receive there as well... But, what happens when you are hunting? You click on a CQ and it changes the green box. Do you leave your TX box in the same place? Thanks

@HamRadioDX Год назад

If you double click on a call, and you have Hold TX Freq ticked, then the TX freq will stay the same, whilst the green box will move to the station you’re calling. It’s recommended to keep this ticked

@GPSJayDog22 2 года назад

Great video. Thank you for sharing. When using my IC-7300 as you layed out, when I hit the Test Cat button it turns green, YAY! When I hit the Test PTT button the mode on my radio changes to UBS where it was just in USB-D and, I have no transmit power even though it does key the radio. Any suggestions? Again, thank you for helping us. Cheers, Jay N6WIP

@HamRadioDX 2 года назад

Hi Jay, Make sure in WSJT-X under the radio settings it is set to "Data". It should then key in the USB-Data mode. The reason that there is no transmit power is because it's trying to transmit in USB mode (and in the radio this is configured to take audio from the front MIC socket). I hope that helps, let me know if you get stuck.

In WSJT-X, I've got wide yellow bands on the waterfall between 700-1100 and 1900-2200 that I didn't have when using the 720A. Any advice on what the reason might be.

Why is "CI-V Baud Rate" set to 19200? Why is "CI-V USB Baud Rate" set to 115200 and not something else? You assume that the computer O/S is Windows (tsk). (In Windows), going to DEVMGR and Properties for Silicon Labs USB Audio Codec (Burr-Brown from TI), the sound card is default set to 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity --- why are you setting Serial (WSJT-X) to 2 stop bits and 115200 baud?
