IC705 bluetooth capabilities
« on: April 04, 2022, 10:27:33 AM »

I have a 705 on order.  How many accessories can connect at the same time via bluetooth?  I already ordered the BT interface for the 705 for control of a hardrock-50.  There is an external meter by VE2DX that connects by BT also.  Will also use a BT headset.

Will this work or are there limitations?

Thanks!

You can download the 705 advanced manual from Icom's web site. On page 10-9 it describes that you can pair up to five headset and data devices and up to two iOS devices.

The only device I have paired is a headset I bought for my cellphone. Works well while driving.

Here are some notes.

The 705 is the first rig that does not sit on the desk because it does not have to be within arms reach. Set up with freeware for remote operation allows it to be located pretty much any convenient place in the shack.
