Many thanks to SWLing Post<\/em> contributor, Dave Zantow (N9EWO), who notes that Ham Radio Outlet has a “Back Friday” special on both the Icom IC-7300<\/a> transceiver ($999.95 with shipping after rebate<\/em>) and the IC-R8600<\/a> wideband receiver ($2,299.95 with shipping<\/em>).<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

According to HRO, these prices will expire on November 27, 2018.<\/p>\n

While the IC-R8600 wideband receiver will still be considered pricey by most standards, but in my opinion\u00a0the IC-7300 is a steal<\/em> at $999.95<\/a>.\u00a0 The IC-7300 is a fantastic general coverage transceiver with built-in sound card for digital modes, touch screen spectrum display and brilliant performance overall. Check out our review of the ‘7300 by clicking here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

If you’ve been thinking about purchasing the IC-7300, I would bite the bullet now. This sale<\/a> combined with Icom’s rebate will yield you the lowest price I’ve ever seen on the IC-7300.<\/p>\n

Note: Dave is selling an AOR AR7030 “PLUS” and JRC\u00a0NRD-545<\/h3>\n

Also, note that Dave Zantow is selling a couple of his benchmark receivers. I know Dave well and can fully endorse purchasing from him as he takes meticulous care of his equipment. Dave has listed his radios for sale on his website.<\/p>\n
