NIB Icom 7000
7000s and even 706 Mk II Gs still ringing a pretty suprisingly good premium . I would say that 500 is a really good price (for the buyer)! 73 - Mac, K2GKK/5 Since 30 Nov 1953 k2gkk hotmail com Oklahom

Trouble with external monitor for IC-7000
When I hook it up, the monitor shows "NO SYNC." Is there something in/on the 7000 I need to do to make it work? It had worked in the past, but maybe I have forgotten something 73 - Mac, K2GKK/5 Since

what power are users getting out of there radios on uhf
Are there any variable caps in the TX lineup that MIGHT be touched up to equalize the output across the whole band? VERY small adjustments to avoid screwing EVERYTHING up if you mess with it! 73 - Mac

So the whole AM modulation issue is unresolved?
Among many other reasons, even ultra narrow band FM takes up too much spectrum space. 73 - Mac, K2GKK/5 Since 30 Nov 1953 Oklahoma City, OK USAF (Retired) 61-81 FAA (Retired) 94-10

What, exactly, is the ISSUE? Virtually all current SSB/CW rigs specify that AM carrier should be set at approximately 1/4 of the SSB PEP rating. 100% AM modulation of a 25 Watt carrier develops 100 Wa

At one time, you could buy a complete IC-7000 control head from Icom, but that was quite a long time ago. I believe the cost for it was over $400. I bought an IC-7000 on eBay several years ago that ca
