Hi Tony
?Prior to plugging my logic board ( the small board in a metal cage that plugs into the main board ) into the Japanese radio it had general coverage RX and 6m band present.
My radio also has the MARS mod enabled.
On the Japanese radio - also has MARS MOD done prior to purchase and it did not have 6m or general coverage.
All I did was to plug my logic board into the Japan radio and it behaved the same as the Japanese logic board did - no 6m and general coverage.
When i returned my logic board to my 7000 the radio lost general coverage and 6m band and now is identical to the Japanese version.
I suspect the eeprom because i took a screen shot of the main tuning page which displays version information before and after which clearly shows some data missing.
See photos attached, before and after.
As you can see under the adjust it now is missing 602FDF0 - not sure what this means - the Japanese radio also is missing this.
I cant find this string anywhere in the eeprom and because i didn't take a copy before hand i don't know if this string has anything to do with what occurred or where is resides - eeprom or the renesas HD64F2377.
I can see all other data from the tuning pages in the eeprom including firmware version data.
regards
James
