Used Icom IC-7800 HF/50MHz Transceiver - Upgraded Screen
A legendary Icom flagship with the upgraded colour display. A rare opportunity to own one of the finest HF transceivers ever built!
The Icom IC-7800 is a true classic in amateur radio, combining exceptional receiver performance, outstanding build quality and a powerful 200W transmitter. Designed as Icom's flagship HF/50MHz transceiver, the IC-7800 remains a highly sought-after radio amongst serious DXers and enthusiasts.
Featuring two completely independent receivers, an impressive 110dB dynamic range and a +40dBm third-order intercept point, the IC-7800 delivers superb performance, even on the busiest bands.
Four dedicated 32-bit floating-point DSP processors provide advanced digital signal processing, whilst the large 7-inch colour TFT display offers an excellent spectrum scope and comprehensive operating information.
With a built-in automatic antenna tuner, ultra-stable OCXO frequency reference and 200W output, this really is a proper flagship radio!

Our Used Example - Upgraded Screen!
This particular IC-7800 is one of the later examples featuring the upgraded colour display, sometimes referred to as the Mark III, although this was never an official Icom designation.
The upgraded screen is a particularly desirable feature, offering a lovely bright display without the fading commonly associated with some earlier examples.
The radio is in good condition, with just two small scratches on the top of the case. The two rear feet are missing, but the original carrying handles are fitted.
That's less than £3,000 for a 200W Icom flagship with the desirable upgraded screen!
Please note: Due to the size and weight of this radio, it is available for collection only from our Staines-upon-Thames showroom.
If you've always wanted to own an IC-7800, this is a fantastic opportunity to get your hands on one of Icom's all-time greats!
