But the Kenwood TS-590SG beats the IC-7600 by approximately 3 db. In doing receive comparisons with other rigs like the IC-756 Pro 3 and IC-7410, the IC-7600 beats the Pro 3 by approximately 3 db and it is tied with the IC-7410. I've used it on SSB, CW and numerous digital modes. It's a very versatile rig with great transmit audio and a very good receiver. I bought one of the last new Icom IC-7600's back in November 2017 with v2 firmware.
