IC7000 remote socket
Tony Levitt
Am using the 7000 for FT8 and using the accessory socket to interface to the pc via a commercial interface lead (am not using CI-V) everything works on all the HF bands including 50Mhz
no problems but the ptt is not working on VHF/UHF have checked all the menu setting but can't find an option to enable/disable on VHF/UHF

I think you have to use the 6 pin socket to get ptt on vhf/uhf Cheers. Robin zl3rew

Hello, Maybe I was not precise enough. I use ACC 13 pin DIN socket . For VHF and UHV band need to connect pin 3 and pin 7 for PTT . Pin 3 is for operation up to 50 MHz and pin 7 is for 2m and 70cm work. Pin 3 and pin 7 need to be connected !!! 73! 9a2mw

Hi, I understand now pin 3 must be for HF linear operation and 3+7 for VHF/UHF. I have used CI-V and the ptt works on HF 2+70 but have a comms problem it fails after a few operations saying that it can not read the frequency so I abandoned that approach. 73s G4EFX
