If the bias set properly for the driver and one of the PA transistors, it is very likely the PA transistor that won’t set is defective. Thank you, Paul W. Hansen, W6XA

Heres a previous discussion on the topic of triggering the tune cycle. Also a link to a circuit mentioned in the discussion "https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/ic7000/conversations/topics/30151" http

Can anyone tell me why the tuner/call button would not key up rig when pushed. I just get one beep each time pushed. Antenna is connected to an mfj tuner, and has worked for a long time. I cleaned up

That's a first. I've not heard of the PTT mirco switch failing. Usually its the microphone cord (especially near the RJ-45 connectors) that fails. Steve WA8Y

The push to talk button on my ic7000 microphone is not working. I found that the small microswitch is bad. Does anyone know the part number for that switch or an acceptable substitute? Cal KC2KD

Are you certain the microswitch is inoperative. Twice I have had problems with the handheld microphone. I found that the piece of plastic between where you hold your thumb and the microswitch. Don't r

I have a couple Kenwood VC-H1 units from my Skywarn days. I captured two tornadoes "live" on SSTV, sent the pics through the local VHF repeater to county EOC, then emailed to NWS in realtime, when NWS

When I do a new radio, I take all pinouts from any socket out to terminal strips, on the back of the desk. Maybe I will never use some, but they are ready and I never have to move the radio or take th

Hi Pasquale, When I bought my IC-7000, all was OK whilе II was in the. Next day the display was like broken TV set. I open the movable panel.There is a small ribbon cable to the display.Not good conne

I'm planning to use the 13 pin ACC socket for FT8 and other digital modes and the manual is not clear to me in respect to the PTT. In case you're wondering why I don't use the DATA socket I'm intend t

I wanted to ask the group about this recent experience I have had with my IC-7000. During the recent ARRL sweepstakes phone contest I operated using my 7000 with a newly acquired MFJ-939i auto antenna

Hi guys I have a problem with my IC-7000. When I try to push PWR, 7000 goes up, leds are on, RX is on but the display is dark. Any help ? Thanks in advance. Pasquale IW0HEX Mail priva di virus. www.av

Could I ask those of you using a Signalink USB with your IC-7000 to weigh in on the 6-pin vs. 13-pin question? (I am already aware of the mic muting issue.) Thanks, Mark -- WA9ETW

The driver transistor on the driver board burned up. It’s likely the board is destroyed too. It’s a relatively common failure in IC-7000’s although Icom tried some modifications to stabilize the drive

The mic not muting when using the 13-pin is the only difference I have seen. KD8M J Tregre, KD8M, on behalf of Her Imperial Majesty, Mystic, Kitty

I'm sorry for you Hank, but I think you have done your PA Driver. It's located under the Main board. It is used on all bands as separate power output Fets are used for HF, VHF and UHF. [image1.jpeg] S

More than likely the driver board….. its under the pa board and not visible unless you pull the pa board…. mines blown twice now, apparently an issue when using non resonant antenna….sarts , I think t

That is a nice device, but it requires a POTS wired telephone line to work. The advantage to the device you describe is that you can do control over a basic telephone instrument. The remote power mana
