  • Awesome Radio
I was a little apprehensive when buying this radio because all the features were intimidating to me. Now that I have it installed and working, it’s the beat radio that I have used in my 10 years of using UHF/VHF communications. I love how easy it is to switch frequencies/bands with a single button on the microphone. The booklet looks difficult, but you really only need the first 5-10 pages of the 96 pages! I’m a pilot/escort for oversize transport, and specializing in super loads. I can have two separate frequencies on the same radio and monitor both at once. So when we’re in a turn, I can communicate with my driver while keeping my chase off the channel, then switch back on the open road. The only negative thing I can say about it is it doesn’t come with the faceplate mount. That may be fine to others if they mount the *brick out of the way and put the faceplate on the dash using the (also not included) faceplate mount. The radio has selectable power levels and it is clear as a bell even at a distance. My colleague also has the same radio and we were able to talk 18 miles on flat ground before the signal became scratchy. You can also name each channel, so I put each company on their own separate frequency by name, which makes it easy to set up my truck by the job. It also has a built in cooling fan that cycles on/off as is needed, I highly recommend this radio, just remember a radio is only as good as it’s antenna and power supply. ... show more

  • Great value, easy to program
I had a TYT TH-9800 in my truck before this one. After moving, the TYT stopped working, (Hated programming that thing anyway). I got this one and put it in the truck. the learning curve for programming the 2730 is much easier than the 9800 IMHO. I am currently using the same old cheap Chinese mag mount antenna I was using with the 9800, but hey, my SWRs are at 1.01, and I can hear the repeaters in the area just fine. I'm not convinced that I'm transmitting all that strong though. I have a Diamond antenna that I want to install this weekend, but the SWRs are a bit higher on that one, so I have to make adjustments. But I digress. the 2730 does not come with any mounting hardware, which is frustrating. I printed a little box that I will mount the radio face on once I get the screws for the face. The screws are 2.6mm unlike many of the other radios out there. McMaster Carr has some screws of varying lengths. The only bit of hardware the radio comes with is the microphone mount. ... show more

  • Great radio
This is probably the sweetest radio you will ever own! Simple to program with chirp just plug in the cable and go programmed right from the the program you use for btech or baefng . Great sound good filters easy to unlock if that’s what your looking for, will cover airband if you are authorized to mars it’s as easy as holding 2 buttons down and turning it on. Great range and clear as a bell . The squelch is on a knob on the front of the radio right next to the volume who would have ever guessed to put it right there! Great radio I haven’t used it over 20 watts but I’m sure it does what it says. Buy one you can’t go wrong on this radio ... show more

  • Exactly what I needed
This radio fits perfectly for my application. Considering not many places to put a full size radio. The only issue I have is the mounting hardware is sold separately. Giving a 4 star because of this in which most if not all other manufacturers provide it. The radio is a slight learning curve as I'm used to other brands. It's a wonderful radio. I have speakers hooked up to the left and right channels to alert me which side is getting traffic. To me but only my opinion can be tricky without. I used chirp for programming. I find the icom programming is confusing. ... show more

  • Fantastic
An excellent product from an excellent manufacturer.

  • Buyer Beware
Radio is tx and rx is solid. To attach the face to the main unit you need to purchase a bracket separately. Another $50. Should come with the radio for the price. The cooling fan sounds like a jet turbine engine. Menu is intuitive. Solid radio but you may get more with another brand.

  • Awesome first radio...
Purchase was fulfilled by amazon but sold by gigaparts. Delivery was prompt... no complaints there. Set up in the house for the first month to learn and program the unit. Learning curve is steep for a new Ham, but does everything I’d like. Instructions are decent, and there are a ton of videos out there for additional help. Cross-repeating is not in the instructions and needs to be “turned on” to become accessible... but works like a charm. RX is very clear onsidering the unit’s speaker. The head is detachable, and the mic conveniently plugs into the main unit or face... thus keeping cables reasonable. Only con so far is the fact that no mounting bracket is included. Any of the “Icom” accessories command a huge premium... sometimes easily costing 10%-20% of the unit itself, so keep that in mind when picking your system. Unit is now installed in my jeep via a ram Mount, diamond NMO antenna cable and mount, and a Browning antenna (1/2 wave). At 15w in suburbia, I easily hit my favorite repeater 42 miles away. For road trips, I reprogram via a laptop and $15 generic cable. Truly happy with this unit and will likely pick up another unit for a 2nd vehicle at some point. Watch the prices as they seem to fluctuate about 10-15%. Icom ran rebates in spring for 50 off the 2730A. Good luck and 73. ... show more

  • NOT as good as what you may think
I really like ICOM radios but this one leaves much to be desired. You have to buy extra parts that should have been included with your original purchased. I was charged at least 30 dollars over than what I should have, and to top it off making it worse it arrived late (not in a timely fashion) regardless of "so called delivery window" ... the selling company "should have" and "could have", done alot better .... but I learned alot from this purchase . BE careful is all i can say! ... show more
