Excellent Radio!

I have wanted an Icom 475H for many years and was fortunate to find one at a good price from an estate. The quadruple conversion receiver is superb at digging out weak signals and the transmitter can run 75 watts hour after hour as it is rated at 100% full duty cycle. This is my first 432 all mode radio but I have owned the Icom 275H for a number of years. Buy it if you can find one, you won't be sorry. These rigs are keepers, they are high performance and near perfect in every respect.

An excellent 432 Base Rig
|
Time owned: more than 12 months

The 475H is a great rig that puts out an honest 75 watts on 432. I have the cw filter and use it for weak signal work. I also have the ICOM preamp that is a real help for extremely weak signal work. The radio is very easy to operate, and is an excellent exciter for a high power amp. I regularly work out 350+ miles with the radio barefoot. This is probably the best base station multi-mode radio for 432 ever built.
