Re: [IC-7000] More Smoke than RF
I previously had the HF pre-amp FETs short out. ICOM was good about fixing that quickly, as well as replacing a "noisy fan" (? - never noticed it). Second time I sent it in for what I was considering

Re: [IC-7000] DSC for IC 7000
Just to throw my 2 cents in about the IC-M802. The radio is a boat anchor. Then you add the speaker and the control head, both are plastic and neither of which weigh very much. However, this was

Re: [IC-7000] DSC for IC 7000

More Smoke than RF
My -7000 just produced a wonderful *pop* sound halfway into a Dit-Dit, and then billowed smoke. Great way to kick off 2014 and work the ARRL Centennial QSO Party. This will be the third time it makes

Re: [IC-7000] DSC for IC 7000

Re: [IC-7000] DSC for IC 7000
