The Radio Today guide to the Icom IC-7610 (Radio Today guides) Kindle Edition

by Andrew Barron (Author) Format: Kindle Edition

This is the book I wish I had when I bought my Icom IC-7610. It includes useful tips and tricks for the configuration and operation of the fabulous Icom IC-7610 transceiver. Rather than duplicate the manuals which describe each button, function, and control, I have used a more functional approach. This is a “how to do it” book with easy to follow step by step instructions.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Book That Should Come With Every IC-7610
Reviewed in the United States on February 26, 2019
Verified Purchase
It has been my pleasure to own an IC-7610 for 13 months. In 61 plus years of being a ham, it’s best transceiver I have owned.

Now, Andrew Barron has written a wonderful book to help me get more out of it than I ever imagined. In a well organized, hands on, how to fashion, he presents a great go-to reference guide covering all aspects of setting up, operating and trouble shooting the IC-7610 written in everyday, user friendly language. Better yet, at the end of the book is a glossary of amateur radio abbreviations/acronyms, and an excellent index, to help the reader go straight to any aspect of the radio that the reader wants to learn more about.

Anybody who owns or is considering buying an IC-7610 should read this book. When I want to learn more about my IC-7610, it will be the first guide I open.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Book! ZL3DW's Brilliant Guide to the Icom 7610
Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2019
Verified Purchase
I own a 7610 and watch the 7610 reflector which is where I heard about this book. It was getting great reviews there so I took the leap and bought it. When I opened it, I didn't expect it to read or be structured like it is. It tells you what you'd want to know about setting the radio up - what buttons to push - in a simple, step-by-step way. There are nice explanations along the way but it becomes a GUIDE of how to set it up. Its straight forward, simple, and clarifies how to get to all of the end point destinations. I can imagine using this book a lot to quickly explore the many 7610 capabilities without stumbling through menus, manuals, emails, on-line searches, etc. Its a sole source reference. Sweet!

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding reference for the Icom IC-7610.
Reviewed in the United States on June 7, 2021
Verified Purchase
This book is - in my opinion - a necessary addition to the Icom IC-7610 user's radio library. I transitioned from a Kenwood TS-940S to the Icom IC-7610 and this book was invaluable. Not only does the author describe the various functions, but he suggests settings for for them as well. While there are default settings, the author suggests settings that maximize the Icom IC-7610's performance. I have recommended this book to other Icom IC-7610 users.

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice alternative to manuals
Reviewed in the United States on December 14, 2019
Verified Purchase
This book presents the author's alternative to the Icom manuals. Whether or not the presentation appeals to one will depend on how you like to learn things. In my case, I had thoroughly read both the basic and advance manuals prior to making the purchase decision. Therefore I really did not find any new information not in the manual. The book is well organized although there is some repetition between sections; that can be useful reinforcement for some.

The author does a generally good job separating (and identifying) what needs to be configured from his personal opinions of how things should be configured. One nitpick on this was the sections on how to configure for WSJT-X. While these appear to be nicely done they have an unsaid assumption that rig control (e.g. CAT or otherwise) from the WSJT-X software is required to use its digital modes. In fact, it should have been noted that the software can be used without such control; it is only necessary to have audio in/out and XMIT control (such as with a Signal link interface box).

Although I said there was nothing not in the manual, the book helped me clarify and fix an issue. I have a USB keyboard connected and it was not letting me write labels for memory channels. I thought that was just a limitation of the rig vs the capability to use the keyboard for the built-in digital modes. The manual does not have an example of writing memory labels via the keyboard. However the book made it much clearer that it should work and that let me find the problem (the USB hub port was off).

Bottom line. I was afraid that purchasing this book would be a waste of money given the manuals. I now believe, given the complexity of the rig, that many would find this a useful adjunct source.

Half the price of DX Engineering. Really helps explain use of this complicated radio. Much better if you have radio handy while going over steps in book.

My husband has been a Ham Radio Operator for 65 years. This radio is a new purchase and as he is very quiet this book must tick what lots of new switches are for. Maybe a good present from the children.
