IC-R8600 User Evaluation & Test Report
IC-R8600 User Evaluation & Test Report By Adam Farson VA7OJ/AB4OJ. Iss. 2, November 1, 2017. Figure 1: The Icom IC-R8600 . Introduction: This Report describes the Evaluation and lab testing of the IC-R8600 . wideband SDR communications receiver S/N 04001185. Appendix 1 presents results of an RF lab test suite performed on the radio. I was able to spend a few days with the IC- R8600 in my ham-shack, and thus had the opportunity to exercise the radio's principal features and evaluate its on-air behavior. 1. Physical feel of the IC-R8600 : The IC-R8600 is fairly small and light, considering its very wide frequency coverage (10 kHz - 3 GHz). The case dimensions are 220(W) . 230(D) 90(H) mm, and the radio weighs kg. The IC-R8600 features a large color touch-screen display similar to that of the IC-7300.
3 The FPGA also delivers a digital video signal to the Display Processor, which manages the screen displays, including the fast FFT spectrum scope and waterfall.
