What is the suggested external antenna tuner for the ICOM IC-7300?
Answer: AH-4
Entry page https://www.gigaparts.n
GigaParts doesn't have a catalogue page for the AH-4 bur DC Engineering does.
Of the other choices:
The AH-2 is a whip antenna designed to be used with the AH-4
There is no AH-7300 but there is an AH-730 antenna tuner.
https://www.gigaparts.c
There is no such thing as an AH-7610.
So by process of elimination the answer must be AH-4 even though GigaParts doesn't carry it.

Table on page 4-6 , page 41 of the pdf
What is the IF Filter (FIL 2) for SSB on the ICOM IC-7300?
Answer: I don't know
I also believe it should be 2.4 kHz. Just because you wrote that it was marked wrong, I tried 1.8kHz. It also marked it wrong even though I knew it would be wrong. So, others that see this can try one of the other two or maybe they fixed it and 2.4kHz will be marked right now?
