Do you still use this radio. I’m love to have a full Drake or Collins station.

I made contact with that pilot that afternoon while I was in my pickup truck on simplex near Gainesville, Texas and he was southbound at 37,000 feet over Lawton, Oklahoma flying to Cleburne, Texas. One of the coolest 2 meter contacts ever. K5DEH

Very nice

That is cool! I have a Panasonic R70 "Panapet" that looks like a smaller, less featured, version of yours. I wish more modern radios used creative designs.

Ritchie Blackmore? Pirates are fun. I don't think I've managed to find any on air yet. I guess I know what I'll be doing for Halloween this year.

Is that you Elon Musk?

Looked like a good time Larry. I see it rained for field day in MN again.

Came for the radio stayed for the dinner, nice spread

Looks like a good time again! Sorry I had to miss but it was my weekend to work, hopefully next year. 73, Mike NJ0Q

Looks like a successful 2024 Field Day In Albert Lea despite the weather, great video!

Nice to see another successful Field Day at your place! 73!

Really enjoyed watching all the folks participating in the event. I was licensed in May and attended my first Field Day here in Jupiter, FL. I had a great time, great food, ribs and chicken, can't wait for the next one!

Y'all seem to get storms every year. I always like to see your Field Day event videos. David K4AYK

Great info thanks for doing that.

Strap it and run a turner mic, has a nice sounding bass audio

Yeah turned sideways in the chassis

Thank you for this information I am a noobie technician+ general on my way to extra and this video is really helpful to setup my first hf plus 2m 70cm radios, keep up the good work.

Bought mine from a local Sony dealer in 1980. Used it for a couple of years and packed it away. Wired it up a few weeks ago and it worked perfectly. But thd bands are almost dead these days, so it looks like it will be going back into storage. I think Sony saw the demise of shortwave stations coming, and stopped producing these types of radios. Often wonder what Sony would be producing in this era of advanced electronics. Seems we will never know due to the demise of shortwave.

I worked CW with the USS John F Kennedy. OM couldnt reveal their QTH. Classified. Later i rcvd his QSL card, which stated QTH during QSO.

Does anyone know of any place where I could get Crystals for the radio?

This is so cool! How many minutes can you communicate with them?

This radio has a problem on the tuning printed circuit board with the rivets that connect the top side printed circuit to the printed circuit on the bottom side of the PC board. The fix is to solder jumper wires on the top side of the board to replace the connection made by the printed circuit on the bottom side. Shining a bright light through the bottom of the board shows clearly where to solder the jumper wires. This is the RF amp and Local Oscillator circuit so it will require alignment. Operation without repair may be intermittent.

What a great idea! The real stories are the best. Thanks for sharing.

Im new to all this. Im from italy. If i use a ham radio, can i connect with ppl from the us? How do i get started?

Neat stuff.

That is how I started in the 90s on a Radio Shack TRC-225 handheld. Lucky to have the Elmers I've had.

Glad the Icom 7300 is working for you. 73......K2CDM - Mike
