The RS-BA1 remote control software gained popularity by allowing radio amateurs to operate selected Icom radios from a PC via IP. The RS-BA1 offers real-time operation with low latency, high-quality audio allowing the use of an Icom radio installed in another room using your home network, or even from a remote location over the internet.

A new version of this software is now available called RS-BA1 Version 2, which will allow users to take advantage of some of the features of HF radios such as the IC-7610, IC-7851 and IC-7850, including dualwatch operation and dual spectrum scope.

RS-BA1 Version 2 is available from all Authorised Icom Amateur radio dealers. Two versions are available, including a packaged version with the RC-28 remote controller with a suggested retail price of £282.00 inc. VAT. A standalone RS-BA1 Version 2 upgrade for previous users of the RS-BA1 Version 1 is available with a suggested retail price of £84.00 inc. VAT.

Please note that RS – BA 1 Version 2 is a new product. You cannot upgrade the previous RS – BA1. It is necessary to purchase the new version. Also, the dualwatch and dual spectrum scope functions are only for the IC-7851, IC-7850 and IC-7610. The spectrum scope functions (single receive) are usable with the IC-7300.
