This is my first attempt this spring to activate a WWFF park after we got a partial lock-down release. It was a first field test for my new Icom IC-705 QRP transceiver too. In the video, I am discovering some useful features for the field operator of this QRP radio. My first impressions are very good, especially with the surprisingly low noise floor of the receiver, better than on my IC-7300!

IC-705 is a very feature-rich radio, so I am very keen to learn them all and share it with you during my coming outdoors activities, situation permitting.
