Built-in

All Mode Radio

From HF to 50/144/430 MHz, enjoy a variety of bands in D-STAR DV, SSB, CW, AM and FM modes. The IC-705 receives continuously from the medium wave broadcast band to 144 MHz band. You can also enjoy FM broadcast and air band reception.

RF Direct Sampling System

The IC-705 uses the RF direct sampling method, which greatly reduces distortion. The high speed/high resolution real-time spectrum scope and waterfall display are incorporated in a compact design for the first time in this class.

Real-Time Spectrum Scope and Waterfall Display

Users familiar with the real-time spectrum scope and waterfall display as seen in the IC-7300 and IC-9700 can now use it in field operation. Utilize the base station feature without the price of one in a compact radio, quickly monitor band activity and find a clear frequency.

D-STAR Functions

Users can enjoy the latest G3 Gateway and DV mode features and have direct access to the D-STAR network with Terminal/Access point modes. The Photo Share feature as seen in the IC-9700 is available on the IC-705 to share photos with other IC-705 and IC-9700 radios without a computer.

GPS Functions

Enhance field operations with the built-in GPS receiver and antenna. Functions include location logging*, RX/TX locations via D-PRS, "Near Me" repeater search/scan, QSO recording with metadata*, and an internal clock synchronization.
*Micro SD required

Optional Backpack

The Ultimate, must have accessory for the IC-705, the LC-192 is the utility backpack for field operations. The IC-705 stays secure in the ¼"-20 radio compartment mounting lug equipped with a safety strap. Adjustable internal panels for custom compartments for accessories such as antennas, battery packs, and more for an afternoon SOTA activation.
