>>> Clean the fuses and all of the connections. >>> As I remember, the IC-7000 has the same kind of separable faceplate that the IC-706 used. The contacts for that connection (on both the main radio

That 3 volt drop is probably much more that is so quick you cannot see it and enough to drop out the radio. If you are measuring at the 13.8 volt point on the tuner plug it would be a good indication

Started the truck no restart on the radio. Checked voltage when I key up it drops 3vdc. This pulles a lot more than what I took out. Of course maybe not so bad, at least I won't run my battery down

As others have said, this may be the supply voltage problem. If you are doing this and a vehicle and the engine is not running, try it with the engine running.

No expansion cable, yet. No tuner since no HD is connected. Sent from AT&T Yahoo Mail on Android

Forgot to mention it's in my pickup. I'll check the voltage. This is replacing my kenwood tm-733, untill I get it fixed, lost vhf xmit. Sent from AT&T Yahoo Mail on Android

Check your ground included the ground screw on the expansion cable Paul J. Filardi

Can I be the first one, if not join others that suggest to check/clean your in line fuses on your power cable, also checking that your power supply is up to the task.

It is common for radios to restart like that if the power source drops below the required voltage. Be sure you have a large enough power supply. Ruben WA2NBL

You may have a bad connection in the power cable. Corroded fuse holder etc are common. When the current draw goes up the voltage drops to the point where the radio shuts off. Check with a meter oer a

Just got a new ic 7000 installed don't have the HD antenna attached, but the vhf/uh is. While in vhf mode I key up, the radio shuts down and restarts. Is this caused by tmnot having a HD antenna

Per the tuner statement, I lost a driver when I had an auto tuner go crazy when an antenna was connected incorrectly (wrong antenna!). This is the only time I had a driver issue on one of my IC-7000

Thanks Steve its a smd Self recovery fuse i am going to fit on trx bench on youtube had some that the driver was badly burnt, but he did not know how it was used, Thanks again, Thanks Dave

I haven't seen many driver board failures personally (I typically only repair 7K's for local hams over the past 15 years, so I don't see a lot of units). I have looked into the driver's design and

Hi Steve Yes i did all of the uhf and vhf Settings as i was in the menu, i did that this morning ,i found an old network cable and wired a switch and connected it to my Marconi 2955 and used the audio

Dave, Glad it fixed your 7K's UHF problem. It's always good to know there are still hams motivated to repair their equipment. Hopefully you'll do the other UHF TX power adjustments now that the idle

The IT-100 when connected via the tuning cable sets the output power to 10 watts while tuning via the tune button. Granted, it is possible to tune at full power manually. While not a perfect

Hi Joe the only thing is with a auto tuner, when tuning you are putting the radio into high vswr when it is tuning, i will be using my radio with a screw driver antenna , My driver board is still

The driver board is a definite weak spot. I've blown a couple up over the years. The best solution I have found is to always use a good auto tuner like the LDG IT-100, even when using a resonate

modding the Driver board ? i see that icom did mod the driver board with an added resister to stop it self oscillating, and burning it self out, does this work ? I have seen on youtube TRX Bench
