Great protection and nice bag for the IC705!

I bought this bag during Hamcation 2025 along with my IC-705, and I really love how well the rig fits inside. It’s very easy to carry in a regular backpack. I’ve had a few “accidents” with the IC-705, but it’s always been protected. I also like that the two side holes allow you to attach straps and use them to support the IC-705 during FM satellite passes. Overall, it’s a great product, and I highly recommend it for anyone looking for extra protection in addition to the rails cage for the IC-705!

Handy bag

Good quality and does the things it says it does. However it is a tight fit with the wind camp cage. The 90 degree adapter on the windcamp has to be unscrewed to pivot enough to fit inside the bag. Also it is a tight squeeze to get this and the laptop bag into the explorer backpack together.

Great extra protection, with one quibble to pass along.

This provides great extra protection for the IC-705 when carrying it in the Explorer backpack. However, I have the full Peovi cage and the clear plastic face cover Peovi provides and it is a very tight fit. The cover/stand for the IC-705V2 add on also barely fits with the face cover installed. I'm not sure the IC-705V2 prototype was tested with the full Peovi cage and plastic face cover. The cover/stand for the IC-705V2 could be a little larger and have more flex to fit better over the face of the radio. I definitely recommend this product if you are not using full cage for the IC-705 and the Peovi plastic face cover. I don't have the Windcamp cage but suspect it is a little less 'beefy' that the Peovi and might work better.
Five stars without a full cage, three starts with.
