Feature by Feature comparison review of these two competitors. More detail is shown on the FTdx-10 as there are less reviews of it available. Which is the better radio? NOTE: One oversight...the 7300 does have RTTY/PSK decode.

As usual, concise and covers all salient points. Especially nice to see that you take the time to learn both radios before doing your videos.

This is probably the best overall review of two radios compared I've ever seen. The only thing missing is comparison of relay noise in QSK CW. Thanks

Fantastic Bob. Great comparison video. I was looking at the 7300 but was concerned about the age of the design so started looking at the Yaesu and now, i'm convinced the better but is the FTdx-10. Thankyou.

I have been looking forward to hearing your opinions. I saw on the Facebook group that you have it. I follow all the radio KZfaq channels. And yours goes into the most detail. Which is great. It is fantastic how it decodes PSK. I sold my 7300 to get the FTdx10. I have also got the 991a and 7100 and 705.

Great shootout Robert, I do Have the IC 7300, started out looking at both(to replace an old but capable IC 751) I was still undecided, when a 7300 came up 1 year old at a great price.

Love the comparison, thank you. We often take the rig out on field days, 2amps on received for the FTdx-10 compared with 900mA with the IC-7300 makes a difference for us. Somehow I got used to the screen in the middle with the IC-7300 which I prefer, but this could be because it was the first one I used.

Excellent video, descriptive and performance/feature based. I appreciate your willingness to buy these radios, test them and spend the hours making a video analysis for the ham community.

Really informative comparison Bob and about what I might have expected given the time the 7300 has been on the market. At the end of the day anyone would be happy with either radio. Both manufacturers are at the top of their respective games.

Howdy from Clarksville, AR de W5EN. Nice video and I enjoyed your reviews. I currently own a 7300 and enjoy using it. The external monitor would be a big deal for sure. My eyes aren't getting any younger. 73 and best wishes!
@Professzore
Hi Bob. Thanks for the excellent presentation. I'm still tending towards IC-7300, and your opinion and final numerical comparison is a very good proof of my ideas. More i/O, external monitor, and PSK/RTTY/CW decode are not important to me. Display greatness/weakness shouldn't be an issue. But all the mentioned advantages of Icom are much more important to me. 73!

I'm a fairly new ham and I have the 7300, but I definitely like what you've done here. My hf radio (wish) list now has the FTdx-10 on it. Nice job, well done. 73s KE8OPY.

Thanks for breaking down the differences. I've spent some time trying to figure out my next rig purchase - these two are the two main choices on the table at the moment (though I do have a fondness for the look of the IC-7100...). This should give me a bit more to go on - I'm thinking saving up for a little longer and forking out for the FTDX10 might be the better choice...
