Re: [IC-7000] My radio just died
Steve
There is a fuse on the main body of the radio, behind the head. Did you check that one????

Thanks for responding, Yes I have checked to make sure that the power supply
and fuses are good in fact I changed it out and still have the same problem. I removed the head and put it back on several times and made sure the contacts were clean but still no joy, no relay click no lights just dead. After it has been off the power supply for a while when I hook it back up I get the normal little arc when I connect up the power supply so power is making it to the Capacitors. thanks a lot Bret WX7Y _____ From: ralph.celone@...

Re: [IC-7000] mobile install - time to give up

Borrow a spectrum analyzer to see what i s going on with respect to RF being radiated from the car's electronics.

No shielded wiring on a vehicle's interconnecting cables is the normal state of affairs today . My 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee emits 6M garbage when it is not running When the driver's door is opened it emits more garbage. The 6 ignition coil packs radiate too. I seriously believe the auto makers do not want your 20 amp power cable for your HF rig running next to their wire bundles for fear of induction into their cables to screwing up some microprocessor function that disables the vehicle. They are covering their own butts. Some shielding and bypassing on the manufacturer's part could go a long way to keeping vehicle reliability high and RF susceptibility LOW. Ask a truck driver how noisy his diesel engine is today with all the microprocessor garbage on it. Its no wonder they need their 27 mhz amplifiers to hear each other down the road a few miles. Try a new Corvette on HF ! I had a 1990 VW Scirocco that was absolutley quiet on HF except for a tiny bit of ignition noise. Progress is wonderful. Welcome to the Future ! To: ic7000@...

The noise is radiated, not conducted. Just touching the center conductor of the coax (and I have tried several types, including, LMR400, RG8, RG8X, RG58A/U, etc) to the radio causes noise so bad that I can't hear anything else (but only with the engine running). Oh well. I appreciate all the offers, but the original question stands.

Re: [IC-7000] Digital Modes Operation.
In my experience, it's better to use the keyboard male-female extension cables; those I found - cheap - were screened, had all pins cabled , and had an extra wire not connected... I just cut away the female part and used the male with the right lenght of cable. I found it to be lots better as the mouse or keyboard cables. Hope this helps, 73. Augusto I2JJR / HB9TZA

I prefer the AH-4. I have used it loops and OCF dipoles fed with and without ladder line from the AH-4 feeds. I have one that I have 75' control cable and Belden 8267.

Dont let them get you down.

high SWR at the rig could indicate a bad connection between the tuner and rig. Just a thought...
