[ICOM] IC-7600 at Tokyo Hamfair 2008

Hi Dick,

My IC-7600 page presents all available information to date. 

http://www.ab4oj.com/icom/ic7600/main.html

As I receive more data, I shall place it on the page. I assume that the 1st
IF is 64.455 MHz,  but do not know whether the IC-7600 receiver has an
image-reject mixer down-converting to the final IF (presumably 36 kHz) in
one step, as in the IC-7800 and IC-7700, or whether there is still an
intermediate step to 455 kHz.

Cheers for now, 73,
Adam VA7OJ/AB4OJ

Mel, you may be right.  My assumption was that the upper part of the Icom
line was being overhauled starting from the IC-7800 and working down.

I could be that the IC-756PIII basics stay intact and it gets outfitted with
the new display and related features.  

Perhaps Adam can shed some light on the architecture of the IC-7600. 

It's a good thought that there could be an IC-7500.
