All you need is a composite video monitor (or older NTSC television) and appropriate cables. The cable is a mini phone jack (tip and ring) on one end and the RCA phono plug on the other end.

Buy a small 7" Tv at. RCA composite input. Connect to the video on th 7000 and your are in business. WARNING the regulation is as good as it just blows up the existing picture. No additional pictures, but it does make a lot of data on the screen easier to read wt. 80 year old eyes. Less destruaction when I am mobile. Good luck 73 de KF7SLM, Jim Sent via the Samsung Galaxy Note8, an AT&T 4G LTE smartphone

BUT, composite video is just what the IC-7000 video output IS! Ergo, you are stuck with it.

Thanks to all who took time to respond. I checked and I do have the appropriate cable. Now all I need is to get my hands on the radio.

Has anyone tried one of the composite video to HDMI converters? They are pretty cheap, and there are a lot more video displays that will accept HDMI inputs.

I have 3 of those composite video to HDMI converters with 2 in use as of now. They work very well. I haven't tried one with my IC7000 though, since I have a 7 inch analog display that I use for the 7000.

Please, W8new -- where did you get your 7-inch analog screen, and would you recommend it for others? J Tregre, KD8M, on behalf of Her Imperial Majesty, Mystic, Kitty

I purchased a 7” flat panel video monitor on eBay for about $23.00 US. It was intended for use in automobiles as a DVD or backup camera display. Works wonderfully with my 7000! Even comes with a wireless remote!

I too bought one of those composite video to HDMI converters, and was very dissatisfied with the results, as I was trying it for viewing composite surveillance video output. I haven't tried it out on my IC-7000 yet. I'm curious, can you please give me some info on the 3 converters you bought, e.g. brand, model #, cost & where and when you got them? I might try one or more of those if they work that good. Hopefully one of those converters will work with the 7000.
Thanks much, Alan, AB6C

I also tried a composite video to HDMI converter with disappointing results, but it was trying to convert composite video from a surveillance DVR to an Dell HDMI monitor. Haven't yet tried it yet with my IC-7000. Could you give me some info on what converters you used such as model number, where bought, price and when? Would be greatly appreciated. Still need to find a decent converter for my surveillance DVR's cameras.
Thanks much, Alan, AB6C
