Donnie,

I have done the mod in the past. It involves taking out one diode, if I remember right.
Very small tip soldering iron, some small solder wick and magnifing head set.
On mods.dk, make sure you click on IC-7000 TVRO & MARS Mods by Steve, N5AC (US version).
Your dealer may be willing to do the mod if you do not have steady hands. Good luck.

Thanks for the info. Knew that it had to be mod'ed ,was just hoping to find
some input from other 7000 users who might have done it to their rigs.

Yes, the 7000 works fine on Mars frequencies.
Of course, you have to modify it with instructions
on the website... www.mods.dk . Click on Icom
on the left and then scroll down on the right to IC-7000.

Afternoon everyone in the group. Was wondering if anyone has experience
with the 7000 and use on the MARS bands.
