Re: No audio, no transmit after programming IC-7000
I’ve been using chirp forever on many radios. ?Never bricked one. ?Never heard of Chirp bricking a radio from my friends and acquaintances either.

Re: CW filter passband width
Yes.? Any of the filters can be modified from their defaults down to 50Hz.? You might also change the shape to Soft to minimize ringing.

Re: CW filter passband width
Go to M-1 then hold "FIL" to get to the filter selector. Each time you press "FIL" you will cycle through the 3 CW filters. Hold F-1 "BW" and turn the great big knob on the right to adjust it up or down.

I see where the narrowest CW filter is 250 hz.? However, from the manual am I to understand that I can reduce the CW bandwidth even more, to 50 hz???

Re: No audio, no transmit after programming IC-7000
Did you try it before the update and did it work then?
It may be totally unrelated to the update.
Is is possible that pure age sitting in the closet and boredom caused a problem is a central part of the radio that keeps it from working.
I can't see programming with RT systems causing the problem.
Did or does)? the RT system program read the radio programming?

No audio, no transmit after programming IC-7000
My IC-7000 had been sitting a while and has a history of very light use. One night I pulled it out and decided to update the local repeaters. After programming the IC-7000 with R T Systems software, I hear no audio and the radio does not appear to transmit, no red line on the display. I then tried a full reset, and still no audio on all bands and no transmit on all bands. Any ideas on how to correct the problem?

Re: To DATA jack or Accessory jack, that is the question.
Hi Darrell, USB is used for all data modes on HF as far as I know,
but you would have to select USB manually. I haven't used CAT
control on mine so I don't know if Winlink or any other software
will set the radio to USB through CAT control. I like using the 6
PIN DIN version because I can use it on any radio with the 6 PIN
DIN. I like using my Digirig because I can use it on any radio I
have including Icom HT's

Hi John,
Signalink USB's always use USB mode on the rig and makes a
matching cable for each rig so it's an easy setup.
I just got my 7000, and I'm getting ready to hook up a Signalink
USB but haven't gotten time to do it yet.
They work great on my other rigs, FTDX-9000D and Elecraft K3.
After a quick look at the manual, the 6pin DIN should be the
proper port for the Signalink USB.
73 and enjoy,
Darrell AB2E
I tried using the Accessory port with my Signalink but it
would never key up the radio. When I switched to the 6 Pin DIN
plug it worked fine. I haven't tried my Digirig on the IC-7000,
but the 6 Pin DIN plug cable & Digirig seem to work with
every radio I have that has the corresponding port.
When you use VARA FM WIDE don't forget to switch the radio's
data speed to 9600. I sometimes forget it, but even VARA Narrow
is still pretty quick.

Taking VARA FM WIDE out of the mix (would require using the

(PSK, RTTY, Olivia) or perhaps a voice keyer, is there any
other reason to prefer one over the other (Accessory vs DATA
AF OUT)?
What has been your experience?
Thanks

Re: To DATA jack or Accessory jack, that is the question.
Well technically the Signalink won't do any baud. ? I have used
mine on VARA FM WIDE and have achieved 25210 bps in both sending and
receiving Winlink emails.

Re: To DATA jack or Accessory jack, that is the question.
I always used the 6 pin mini jack. I don't remember what they called it.
If you use this jack I think that the front mike is automatically muted in digital transmission.
Your mileage may vary.
