This radio use to belong to my farther in law. It has been sitting in my shop for the past. Few years and has not been used by me, except for listening. It is in excellent running order. It contains a packet of schematics as well as the original service manual which goes into. Great detail listing all the components, operating features, etc. Home and need to downsize, so I must sell it. Below is a recent post about the IC-781. The Icom IC-781 is a ham transceiver and in the 1990s it was the company’s top of the line models (a flagship model). What is interesting about this models’s history, it was initially built and designed for government and military use. It had a large 5 inch CRT display that was multi-functional and had a spectrum scope! It was definitely a full sized hf rig (so no puny amateur radio here), that somewhat resembles the look of the newer IC-7800 rig out today (costing several thousands of dollars). It also has dual receive, twin passband tuning, and 150 (adjustable from 15 – 150) watts of RF output power. The Icom IC-781 had an adjustable noise blanker, notch filter, and even adjustable AGC. The receiver’s dynamic range is also exceptional (105db), and had clean audio too (non-dsp, so none of those funky digital artifacts noise concerns).
