Re: IC-7000 to MFJ-4416c and HSEND?
Hi Michael
I had a 4416 in my crew cab truck hooked to my 7K with the radio body, booster box, and independent battery 100A AGM (much less noise)? in a radio box I made in my locked?canopy, and the control heads for both at the driver's seat.? To spare the radio battery I went into the control head of MFJ 4416 and installed two small micro switches on the left side to shut off power to the control head and to the control unit in the rear. The power booster would not output power unless both the (power booster always on the red button ) was pushed and both of the micro switches were on.? Having the two switches I could see the difference in voltage between no booster and with the booster.? ?I added a third micro switch to the right side to control the lights in the meters so they were not always on.? (saving battery I hoped).??
?It has been working for many years till the truck was retired and I plan to install the setup in my Ford Edge under the rear seat with the control heads on an? 8" drawer slide, out of sight until needed.? The only thing that will be seen is my dual-band antenna on the roof and the HF antenna mount behind the rear tire on the passenger side.
Good luck,? Hope you get your working,

IC-7000 to MFJ-4416c and HSEND?
Hello All,?
I want to connect my 7000 to an MFJ-4416C voltage booster's keying circuit so I don't have to leave the booster ON - It generates rolling switching noise when just left on.? Anywho, my other radios have a SEND RCA plug that goes to ground to key an amp, but the 7000 has an HSEND and the manual shows it as an input and output, so I don't want to do something stupid and let the smoke out.
?
I would have thought all I needed to do would be connect the HSEND to either pin 1 or 2 on the 4416, but looking for confirmation.? I don't care to use the VSEND for anything because this is my HF mobile, and I've got a separate VHF/UHF rig.
?
Any suggestions, confirmations, or cautions welcome.
?

Hi Reg
Once the burnt area has been cleaned you can get an idea of ??how
to proceed. I'll tell you how I did it :
If there are no SMD components in the area (or even a few of
them) but only discrete ones, you can use a little rasp to make a
nice hole (hi) and remove the entire burned part of the PCB.
Then use a piece of copper-plated fiberglass on one side, make
holes to place the discrete components (the coil for example); the
copper side goes towards the drain of the mosfet so as to have a
strong and stable soldering; basically rebuild all the links that
were blown away.
It may seem unprofessional but I assure you that between the
abundant welds and the metal screen the job will also be well done
aesthetically and above all you will recover a radio that you
cannot use on VHF
Once you have made all the connections and verified the
connections, redo the bias and try everything again. With this
technique (shaping a piece of copper PCB in the hole) I repaired 2
boards, one of an ICOM-PW1 and a final stage of an ICOM-775, they
have never given more problems. It's an attempt you can make.
Let us know about your repair.

Hi Pasquale
I've spoken to the owner and he will clean the area around the coil and then take photos
We both have the flu and he'll do it as soon as hr feels better
Thank you very much for all your help and any other we can get
We would still like to find a replacement PA board if possible
Many thanks, 73, Reg

Hi
the situation is very hard !
On solder side I think there is an opportunity but I have no
idea with the damage in other side !
You should to clean the other side well and to do some other
photos to understand if there is a space to fix ! If the area
is full of SMDs component, it's very hard to fix, the
situation is very very difficult.
Please, if you can of course, try to do other photos of other
side (side with coil) ; before clean well . Thanks

burnt a hole in the board. I would be able to get a

Technically it should be an 8 ohm speaker, but pretty much any external
speaker should work. The one you pictured should work fine. I generally
hit Goodwill and grab a pair of bookshelf speakers as they work to hold
up a shelf as well. Typically around $5 for a pair and they sound great.
If they don't have an audio cable with 3.5mm plug on the end at
Goodwill, you can usually get them at Walmart.
