Good evening to all.. finely i found the reason for no turning on of my 7000 R723 was broken..i measure 14v on the fuse site and only abbt 3v on the other side of the R. so to low voltage on the

Steve, when you change the tuning voltage wired to the VCTCXO the TX frequency (measured with a counter at the dummy load) has to change too, imho. The 7000's firmware or hardware has not got any

Igor, There is much that goes on in the firmware that makes it hard to predict how the hardware will work. But the behavior you see is normal. Setting the REF frequency accurately will either solve

I've asked Icom Europe on this (a week back), none answer yet. My gut feeling tells me the change of the maintenance mode REF setting from 0-FF must change the TX frequency in AM CW RTTY modes,

@Steve and Helmut: thanks for the hints. I started to doubt that I can see a change of the TX freq (while changing the hidden adjust hex value) after I had a look in the service manual - the

I once had a 700 with exactly this problem. Cannot calibrate down, reaches 100 % in menu 51. What I found is the analog control voltage to the oscillator chip VFO was off and not in spec. Voltage

Using my calibrated Agilent 8924C analyzer I see OTH #51 vary by 1330 Hz from 0-100% when measuring the 124.032 MHz 2LO signal at P4. When transmitting on CW or AM at 20 MHz it varies 215 HZ from

Corrected: "With the OTH menu #51 I get about 150Hz diff from 0-100% (at 20MHz).

Hi, the same issue here. EU version, 13y old 7k. With the OTH menu #51 I get about 4.5kHz diff from 0-100%. "Luckily" at the 100% setting it is only 5Hz low (at around 20MHz). While messing with the

Please re-read the question. Slightly different application, where two data ports may be involved.

Jeff, This is discussed in the ACLog documentation: https://www.n3fjp.com/cwschematic.html Robie - AJ4F

Using the 7000 with ACLog. Connected data port on rig to laptop with RigRunner. Works great to capture the frequency. How do I connect the rig to the laptop for ACLog to transmit CW please? Thanks!

Good job! It is important when handling all of the circuit boards to use proper ESD protection. I notice one picture of the LOGIC board laying on what appears to be a synthetic cloth surface.

Good job Steve, Now i can starting to control those things on my propre 7000 with the same problem... question...is there a posibility to test the rig without the pa board...to exclude problems in

Hi Jeff: Excellent write-up. Very nice deep dive! I have a DeWalt radio with a mechanical-digital encoder that failed. Found a replacement encoder at Mouser.com. I ordered a tray of 12 of them and it

Don't know if it's the same, but just found this if your repair doesn't work out. It looks very similar. https://www.bearcatscanner.com/uniden-brvg0913001/ -- Bill, KMØF Radio Amateurs must be

That is very good detective work. Glad to see troubleshooting on that level. Not sure if anyone else has ever had the issue of the memory bank switch on the IC7000 not working correctly but I'll add

Great detective work, Steve! It makes me proud that another IC700 rejoins the living!.

Fantastic Steve !!! Great job and thanks for sharing Happy 2021 !!! 73s Pasquale IW0HEX Inviato da Posta per Windows 10 Da: Steve Kent Inviato: martedì 5 gennaio 2021 20:22 A:

So to recap and put all of this in one single post, the problem I was having with the rig was that it was completely dead. No relay clicks, nothing. I have verified +13V at the PA and elsewhere on the
