As a first for Icom’s HF/50 MHz radios, the IC-7300MK2 incorporates an HDMI™ port for external display connection. Operating information, such as frequency, scope, waterfall, and menus, can be shown on a large monitor, and audio can also be output through HDMI™ to the display’s speakers.
Class-Leading Compact Radio Evolves to the Next Level!
The IC-7300MK2 HF/50/(70) MHz* transceiver is an enhanced version of the highly popular IC-7300, which was Icom's first amateur radio to employ RF direct sampling technology and sold over 100,000 units worldwide. It delivers high-end performance and features in a compact, cost-effective package.
With RMDR improved by more than 12 dB and transmit phase noise reduced by over 12 dB, it delivers even cleaner, more powerful signals. Reduced heat generation ensures stable, long-hour operation — perfect for serious DXers and contesters.
The IC-7300MK2 also adds an external display output (HDMI™ port) and a built-in CW decoder. New connectivity options include a USB Type-C™ port, LAN port, and dedicated receive antenna connectors. The APF (Audio Peak Filter) function further improves CW signal intelligibility. With all these advancements, the IC-7300MK2 redefines what a compact HF transceiver can do.
* 70 MHz available on the Europe Version.
Enhanced Performance
Enhanced Performance
Improved RMDR and Phase Noise Characteristics
The IC-7300MK2’s RMDR is improved to about 12 dB typical* and transmit Phase Noise characteristics are improved by about 12 dB* compared to the previous model. The superior Phase Noise characteristics reduce noise components in both receive and transmit signals.
* 2 kHz separation at 14.2 MHz, CW, IF BW: 500 Hz.
What is RMDR
RMDR (Reciprocal Mixing Dynamic Range) is a key indicator of how much receiver sensitivity is degraded by strong nearby signals. A higher RMDR value means less blocking from adjacent signals. In general, lower LO phase noise results in better RMDR performance.
Enhanced Performance
Power Saving and Lower Heat Generation for Longer Continuous Operation
Through component selection and DC power optimization, the IC-7300MK2 reduces heat generation and enables stable operation during extended operating periods, such as contest operation. Compared to the previous model, the IC-7300MK2 reduces power consumption from 0.9 A to 0.7 A (typical) during RX standby. Furthermore, the fan control has been improved, making fan noise much less noticeable.

New Feature
Simplified Remote Control for RS-BA1
Whether from a remote location within your home QTH, or from a remote location somewhere around the world, the RS-BA1 (Version 2) software enables you to operate your IC-7300MK2*. With the addition of an Ethernet connector, a base station computer is not required. Not only can you control the radio settings and display a spectrum scope with the waterfall, you are able to remotely turn the radio ON or OFF through the Internet.
RTTY and CW decode functions are not supported in the RS-BA1 Control Software.

New Feature
Built-in CW Decoder
CW Decoder
Another first for Icom’s HF/50 MHz radio, the IC-7300MK2 can decode Morse code signals without using a PC or other external equipment*. The decode settings can be customized to suit various situations and needs, including decode key speed (AUTO, LOCK, KEYSPEED linked), decode filter (AUTO, FIX), and threshold (AUTO, MANUAL).
Decoding accuracy may vary depending on receiving conditions.
New Feature
USB Type-C™ with Dual COM + Audio
USB Connection
The IC-7300MK2 provides a USB Type-C™ port with dual virtual COM ports and audio IN/OUT. You can use two applications simultaneously, such as FT8, logging and contest software, with just one USB cable.
CW decode output to the USB port is not supported.
New Feature
APF (Audio Peak Filter) for CW Signals
The APF improves CW reception by emphasizing a specific audio frequency, making it easier to zero in on a desired signal. The APF level is adjustable from 0 to 6 dB in 1 dB steps.
Real-Time Spectrum Scope
Equipped with a real-time spectrum scope, the IC-7300MK2 delivers sophisticated operation through intuitive touch control with advanced specifications, including resolution, sweep speed, and dynamic range. While listening to received audio, you can check for clear frequencies, monitor band conditions, and quickly access target signals with simple touch operation.

High-Resolution Waterfall Function
The combination of the waterfall function and the real-time spectrum scope assists in maximum receive performance of the IC-7300MK2, and increases QSO opportunities without missing weak signals. The waterfall function shows a change of signal strength over a period of time, and allows you to find weak signals that may not be apparent on the spectrum scope.
Audio Scope Function
The audio scope function can be used to observe various AF characteristics such as microphone compressor level, filter width, notch filter width and keying waveform in the CW mode. Either the transmit or receive audio can be displayed on the FFT scope with the waterfall function and the oscilloscope.
Automatic Contest Serial Numbering
Contest Serial Numbering Example
This function is powerful in CW and RTTY contests. Each time the pre-programmed memory is transmitted, the serial number is automatically counted from 001. The serial number can be set in multiple locations to ensure that the contest number is reliably copied.
Advanced RF Direct Sampling
The IC-7300MK2 utilizes RF direct sampling technology that directly converts RF signals to digital data and processes them within an advanced Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). This innovative approach dramatically simplifies circuit architecture while delivering exceptional performance that sets new standards in amateur radio.
Advanced “IP+” Technology
The “IP+” function significantly enhances intermodulation distortion (IMD) performance. When you receive strong interference adjacent to your intended signal, it intelligently optimizes the AD converter to minimize signal distortion and ensure clean reception.
15 High-Performance Discrete Bandpass Filters
Band-pass Filters
Incorporating 15 discrete RF bandpass filters with high-Q factor coils, the IC-7300MK2 delivers exceptional out-of-band interference suppression, comparable to premium-class transceivers.

CloseCloseIngress Protection (IP) Code
Ingress Protection (IP) ratings define the level of protection provided by enclosures to prevent the ingress of foreign objects (dust) and liquid into the electrical equipment.
International Standard IEC 60529 outlines an international classification system that describes the sealing characteristics of electrical equipment.
The classification system uses the “IP” code, or “Ingress Protection” code, to define the level of seal.
An IP number contains two numbers (i.e. IP67) in most instances which relate to the level of protection provided by an enclosure or housing.
Either number may be shown as “X” (i.e. IPX6 / IP7X) to indicate the “X” part is not tested.
Degrees of Solid Particle Protection – 1st Digit
| IP6x | No ingress of dust; complete protection against contact. (Dust tight) |
|---|---|
| IP5x | Protected from the amount of dust that would interfere with normal operation. (Dust protected) |
Degrees of Liquid Ingress Protection – 2nd Digit
| IPx8 | Protected against continuous immersion in water. Depth and duration specified by model. |
|---|---|
| IPx7 | Protected against temporary immersion in water for 1 m (3.3 ft) for 30 minutes |
| IPx6 | Protected against water projected by powerful jets from any direction. 100 L per minute by a powerful jets (12.5 mm) for 3 minutes. |
| IPx5 | Protected against water projected by jets from any direction. 12.5 L per minute by a nozzle (6.3 mm) for 3 minutes. |
| IPx4 | Protected against water splashed against the equipment from any direction |
