Winlink Express works fine with my IC-7000. Check the Icom, not the early models. The frequency format is different. Make sure the CI-V address is the same in the radio and in the Winlink setup - by t

Hi, Richard! Does your new CI-V hub support independent bit rates per port? Does it provide buffering to prevent collisions? Does it provide traffic decongestion – for example, if the transmitter send

You are aware that Icom changed the frequency format when their radios addressed frequencies over 1GHz. There's an extra byte (two hex digits) in the newer radios. I've looked at source code for a PIC

The Yaesu FT-857 is a similar format, HF+6+2+70. However, it does not have as informative a display, a much more cryptic (but flatter) menu structure, and is a generation older receiver technology (it

There is no IF output on the IC-7000 and adding one requires some surgery. Another way to do it is to get an SDRPLAY or equivalent that can handle HF frequencies (or pair it with an upconverter). Conn

I am guessing here. Icom changed the PTT circuit at some point. The signal from the tuner to the radio needs to be a ground. In the past, it was a +12V. If you are using an older design tuner, it may

Are you using a UBS-to-serial adapter? If so, make sure that the COM port number hasn’t changed. If it has, change HRD or the assigned port so that they match. Windows may have updated the driver behi

There are some products similar to the Signalink that provide more connections to the radio. For example, the West Mountain Radio Rigblaster Advantage - with a single USB - provides the audio, CI-V (C

Congratulations! Even though I've had my 7000 for quite a while, I am constantly amazed at its phenomenal performance in such a compact package. You will enjoy it thoroughly. 73, Kevin N5KRG

I used a similar arrangement to use a Heil ICM mic and the factory mic at the same time. In my case I made a short cable with modular 8 pin connectors on both ends but with the mic audio wire omitted.

Do you have an actual CI-V/CAT (5v open collector) cable? A standard RS-232 (which is actually an RS-423 but that’s another story) cable will often have problem with the CI-V/CAT because it’s electric

Array Solutions has a limiter you can put inline that clamps the received voltage. Very little insertion loss otherwise. Designed for Field Day and similar applications, it sounds like it might solve

Don't know about the Subaru but some cars have an airbag under the dash cover. There is no discernible panel. The whole dash cover is pushed up and out of the way when the bag fires. That might be why

Steve, FWIW I connected the 151 with an Ethernet patch cord and cut the mic audio wire. That way I can use my Heil ICM boom mic and retain all the control features of the 151 without picking up extra

As KD2ALV suggested, it may be the micro switch in the mic. Suggestion - open the mic (couple of screws) and reflow the solder around the mic's electrical and mechanical pins. Very often the holes wer

I've had similar issues with this and other Icom mics with the same mechanical design. In all cases the holes that hold the switch pins - electrical and mechanical - did not have enough solder to fill

I use a Heil ICM on a boom. I also use a footswitch. And I ran back to back 8 pin modular connectors to leave the stock mic connected but cut the audio lead - that way I have a hand-switch (PTT on the

I use Ham Radio Deluxe (HRD) with my 7000. The bandscope feature works well for me. Kevin

I had a similar problem. I did two things to solve it - not sure which one fixed it. 1) grounded the unit. I know that sounds odd, since the 7000 has a perfectly good ground lug. I hadn't been doing m

I use a Heil ICM microphone with the appropriate adapter cable and a foot switch. I that plugged into the rear mic connector. I also built a back-to-back 8-pin modular cable with the mic lead open and
