The IC-7100 is a MultiBand, MultiMode, 100W Transceiver which provides DSTAR capability on HF, VHF and UHF. The radio covers HF/6M/4M/2M/70cm.
It has a base unit and a separate head unit which is connected via a Screened CAT-6 cable. The cable can be extended so that the unit can be operated from another room, or in the case of a car, the base-unit could be installed in the boot of of sight.
In addition to two uniform rows of switches, the radio has a bright, clear touchscreen for easily making changes to settings. It all seems pretty intuitive.
