Re: Display Quality
Here are a couple of photos while I was using the TX-500 today at a park west of town. The first one was in the shade and the second in the direct sunlight. The user display settings have not been

Re: Display Quality
The display is just fine. I have yet to use the radio in direct sunlight. However, I'm headed out to a county park to play a little in winter field day I will post a picture here of the display. 73,

Re: Display Quality
I have never seen the 5100, but the TX-500 screen has been just fine for me in indoor lighting, darkness outside, and outdoors under overcast skies and partly sunny skies. Sorry I can¡¯t speak to yet

Re: TX-500 or IC-705
Hi Uli et al! The same ideas came on my side. I like the new features and concept (I come from the Yaesu community) of the IC705 and will mostly use it as a basestation with an ATU and a PA (i.e. the

Re: TX-500 or IC-705
Hi Uli I ordered my TX500 back in August 2020 and experienced manufacturing delay after delay. Of course the wait was frustrating but I eventually got that email from Ham Radio Outlet saying my TX500
Re: TX-500 or IC-705
When the TX 500 becomes widely available I will of course buy one, it looks like a very sturdy radio, then I can decide on the 705 vs TX 500 debate. I did try to purchase the TX 500 first then bought
Re: TX-500 or IC-705
Love my TX-500. You won't regret it. Consumer vs commercial quality.

Panera bread, Starbucks, Target, Bed Bath & Beyond, and an IC 705. Safe choices for all consumers. I want better construction quality with less consumed bag space for 2/3 the price. Still letting my

MX-P50M HF amp setup
Just made my first contact to Toronto using the MX-P50 amp that I use with my Yaesu 817ND. I purchased the necessary cables for the mod from W2ENY in addition to Anderson powepoles.

Re: TX-500 or IC-705
The IC-705 got a tremendous amount right. I'll give you the "for me" reasons: - Build quality on tx-500 is outstanding. It's meant to be thrown into a backpack. - The display reflects daylight- it

TX-500 or IC-705
Hello to the group, since in Europe the TX-500 is still not deliverable due to the CE certification (don't laugh), i would like to have a few opinions: Why should i wait and not buy a IC-705 instead
