The Icom IC-7300 is a popular HF transceiver among amateur radio operators, known for its advanced features and ease of use. However, integrating it with software like Ham Radio Deluxe (HRD) can be challenging due to compatibility issues. This guide provides step-by-step instructions on how to configure the IC-7300 to work seamlessly with HRD 5.24, the last freeware version available. It covers the installation of necessary drivers, setting up virtual COM ports, and configuring audio settings for digital modes. To begin, users must download and install the Icom USB driver, which creates a virtual serial COM port for communication between the radio and the computer. The guide details how to check for this new port and adjust the CI-V address settings to ensure proper communication. It also explains how to set up the soundcard settings in HRD for digital modes, allowing operators to transmit and receive audio effectively. Following these instructions will enable IC-7300 owners to maximize their radio's capabilities with HRD.

A 200 kHz bandwidth digital transmission system for image transfer in the Amateur Service is under development, specifically targeting VHF allocations. John B. Stephensen, KD6OZH, leads this project under an FCC Special Temporary Authority (STA) valid until September 10, 2006, authorizing emissions up to 200 kHz bandwidth in the 50.3-50.8 MHz segment. Current regulations typically limit bandwidths to 20 kHz on VHF amateur bands, making this STA crucial for testing wideband digital modes. The modem, a modified **OFDM** (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexed) unit, was initially tested on the 70-cm band. It splits a high-rate data stream into multiple low-rate subcarriers to mitigate multipath echoes. The system uses a DCP-1 card with a Xilinx XC3S400 FPGA and Oki Semiconductor ML67Q5003 microcontroller. The transmitter, located at 36d 46m 30s N, 119d 46m 22s W, generates 150 WPEP into an 8 dBi gain vertical antenna, while the mobile receiver uses a Ham-stick. Three data formats for 50, 100, and 200 kHz channels are being tested, with encoded data rates of 96, 192, and 384 kbps. Verilog code for the VHF OFDM modem is 95% simulated, with modifications from the UHF version including increased filter coefficient precision and a change from Ungerboeck **TCM** to BICM for improved performance over fading paths. Final tests will involve one-way over-the-air measurements of bit error rates and coverage area.

The _Sci.Electronics FAQ: Repair: RFI/EMI Info_ document, authored by Daniel 9V1ZV, provides a detailed analysis of computer-generated RFI/EMI, focusing on its impact on radio reception. It identifies common RFI sources such as CPU clock rates (e.g., 4.77 MHz to 80 MHz), video card oscillators (e.g., 14.316 MHz), and even keyboard microprocessors, all of which generate square-wave harmonics across HF and L-VHF regions. The resource outlines a systematic procedure for pinpointing RFI origins, including disconnecting peripherals and using a portable AM/SW receiver with a ferrite rod antenna to localize strong interference sources. The document categorizes RFI mitigation into shielding, filtering, and design problems, offering practical solutions for each. It recommends applying conductive sprays like _EMI-LAC_ or _EMV-LACK_ to plastic casings of radios, monitors, and CPUs to create effective Faraday cages, emphasizing proper grounding and avoiding short circuits. For filtering, the guide suggests using line filters, ferrite beads, and toroids on power and data lines, and small value capacitors (e.g., 0.01 uF for serial/parallel, 100 pF for video) to shunt RFI to ground. It also discusses the use of bandpass, high-pass, low-pass, and notch filters on the receiver front-end or antenna feed to combat specific in-band noise.
