![]() Good points: high sensitivity, good selectivity on SSB/CW and narrow FM, no birdies, no overload suffering, three antenna connectors on the back, very simple to use, good IF shift, very low frequency image level.īad points: poor selectivity on wide FM (230 kHz, not suitable for FM and TV DX), no miracolous noise blanker, no VFO but memories as VFO, low deflection of the S-meter.Īfter opportune comparison also with IC-R9000, the IC-R8500 is almost similar but with very lower price. ![]() Selectivity and sensitivity is the same than dedicated transceivers (like TR751, FT290, etcetera). Over 30 MHz it is perfect, no birdies, no frequency image. I have make comparison with IC-R7000 and IC-R7100 and my IC-R8500 is the winner! Behaviour on 0/30 MHz is not poor like I believed before test. ![]() I have purchased it two years ago as used.
