Repair ships will service 7000 still. I just sent one in. There are two out of warranty repair ships listed on icom website.

A bit more info.
After looking at the readings into the dummy load while the radio was mounted in the car, I then took it into the shack and powered it up using my SEC-1223 power supply. The results were the same. So, since I was using a different power source, a different cable (no blade fuses) but the same load, I'm assuming that the radio has a problem. It might also be interesting to note that the power output readings at the rig on VHF and UHF are also showing low plus when changing HF bands the error is still the same no matter which band I tried.?
I no longer have much test gear here as I just don't have the room for a work bench at the new QTH. I will probably have to contact Icom to see if they still service the '7000 radios.?
Thanks to everyone for their comments. I have learned a lot from you all.
