Re: [IC-7000] Reception on 6 meters

Perhaps use a duplexer, such as a DIAMOND MX-62M, instead of switching to and from the HF and VHF/UHF connectors.

Hello All -
?
I am a new member of this group and fairly new to
amateur radio.
?
My question involves settings I might check/change
in the IC 7000 to improve reception on the 52-54 MHz
portion of the 6 meter band.? We are installing about
30 IC 7000s in local emergency operations centers and
in most places we are using a triband 6/2/440 antenna
either a Comet GP-15 or a Diamond V2000A.??
?
The 7000 uses one antenna connector for VHF/UHF, and another for HF
(thru 54 MHz).? Using a triband antenna, you must switch the triband
antenna between the transceiver antenna connections when going from
6m to VHF/UHF.
