I've always felt that mine ran hot, but didn't really have anything to compare to. An external fan helped a lot. Max KG4PID

I to really liked my 7000 mobile. That with a screwdriver antenna and I could work just about anywhere. With the control head mounted on a flexible shaft and mounted to a seat bolt I could use the arm

Is this a know problem or did you find these defective components through your own trouble shooting? Either way, good job on the repair. Max KG4PID

If you have double checked the setup in the manual and it still doesn't work I would check continuity on all the wires from the plug all the way to the inside of your tuner. Search for the pin out of

Have you tried it into a dummy load? That is what I would try first, just to make sure you don't have an RF problem. And the 7000 has two mike jacks, one on the control head and one on the back of the

I could be wrong, but I think all you need is a entertainment center that has a camera input which should be composite video. Some have more than one input for multiple cameras. You just connect a cab

I'd be curious as to the fix for this because I have a 7000 with a similar problem. I never tried mine on 6M, but all the lower bands show a high SWR. But mine doesn't reduce the power out, it runs wi

Since something is obviously different, I would check things like the voltage and for noise on the USB port. Max KG4PID

But wouldn't it also lose the settings as soon as you remove the old battery? You can't leave the rig powered up while replacing the battery because it requires too much disassembly. To bury a battery

Thanks for that suggestion since I hadn't thought of that. I just checked and it seems to be making good contact. A FULL reset also didn't change anything. Thanks, Max KG4PID

I've connected the dummy load directly to the radio. I still have a 2:1 to 3:1 depending on band. I'm gonna have to send it out for repairs. Max KG4PID

The external meter was always in the circuit but has been checked with my 259B. In fact everything has been checked, from all my coax jumpers, both dummy loads and my other power/swr meters. Since my

Good to know that the parts are available. Hopefully that will help reduce the repair costs. Max KG4PID

From the radio straight to a dummy load. I hope not. The dummy load checked good on my 259B. Max KG4PID

Hello everyone. I have an Icom 7000 that now shows a high SWR (2:1 - 3:1) depending on band into a dummy load (2 different ones). Here's the catch, I can change the SWR by using different lengths of c

Enough already !

You have me curious. You said 'I measure an open circuit between the cat connector (ring/shield) and rig ground'. Why aren't you measuring 'Tip to Ring' ? Not saying you don't have a problem as I've n

Odd that you only hear the clicks when makeing a change, since HRD is polling the data from the 7000 every 1/2 second or so (never timed it). My interface is from Radio Shack and it has a TX and RX le

You want the one that has the 6 pin mini-din plug on it, not the one that has the 13 pin plug. Max

I purchased a few sets (male and female) from Radio Shack. Max
