Re: Intermitten tx
FWIW -- I was on a sailboat for three years, with an IC-706, on the Pacific Coast, in warm water.? The IC-706 had the dreaded glass fuses in its power cord -- much more trouble-prone than ATC

Re: Stays in Transmit
Sorry for delay in followup to group on my problem.? Lots of more pressing recovery issues in the shack. Pasquale (IW0HEX) was correct.? And the other replies that suggested the issue was likely

Re: Intermitten tx
Similarly, some of the microswitches in the mic PTT were notorious for going bad.? Fortunately, replacements are readily available (I found them for $1 at the local electronics store), and replacing

Re: Intermitten tx
The original ATC style fuse holders from the factory have an inherent design flaw.? The contacts do not scrape through the surface oxidation on the fuse blade (like typical holders do), which results

Re: Intermitten tx
As long as the 7000 had been around everyone needs to know that the original fuses and fuse holders are notorious for causing transmit problems.

Re: Intermitten tx
OK... some progress.... after opening up and looking for voltage drop in tx it turns out i had a bad fuse holder in the power cable.... and although the same mic can key my icom vhf into TX over and

Re: Help me fix my latest IC7000 failure
Okay, well, I'm definitely going with "it seems fixed now, regardless" :) Thanks for the fascinating summary of the consequences of lead-free solders (a problem I didn't realize existed) and the

Re: Help me fix my latest IC7000 failure
I'd go with the first one.? I've heard of it, but I don't remember seeing one.? It may be that I saw one and forgot about it, although we tend to remember the weird things and not the

Re: Help me fix my latest IC7000 failure
Wow, this makes me nervous that I'm wrong! I mean, replacing it definitely fixed it, but... As noted in the post, I measured it in-circuit, then with the ribbon cable disconnected. With the cable

Re: Help me fix my latest IC7000 failure
I've got to tell you, in about 40 years in the electronics manufacturing industry including the last 25 working with chip components, I can't recall seeing a single shorted resistor. Congrats on

I hope I'm not bothering anyone with this, but I think I've resolved this power meter issue as well. Details

Re: Help me fix my latest IC7000 failure
Unfortunately, the saga continues. Would love some ideas on next steps. After DigiKey and FedEx conspired against me, I finally received the replacement regulator and resistor that I needed to get

Re: Stays in Transmit
How serious are you about digging into the IC-7000? Are you comfortable working on little bitty SMD devices and taking the radio apart? I ask because working all through the drawings and
