I also have an IC-7300, it is the iconic radio that really started the Ham SDR ball rolling...

My little QRP rig also runs Linux, the Xiegu 5105, I am going to get the newest Xiegu X6100 as soon as the bugs are worked out of it.

Here’s the guy who first managed to get root on the 6100.

When my IC-7300 was in shipping, I watched all of the excellent videos by WA2IVD. There are 44 of them and they really helped out. Out of the box, I had a very good idea of what it would do and how to set it up the way I wanted. Great radio. The old Kenwood TS-570D is just gathering dust. I have a 160, 80,40 meter dipole and with the water around Bethel Island, the antenna works very well. I will be calling roll on Western Public Service System tonight at 7:30pm Pacific time tonight.
