Re: IC-7000 and LDG IT-100 ,trouble ?!?!?!
开云体育I have an IC-7000 and I bought an LDG AT-200 PRO II this week.?
The tuner really acts erratic & now it's on it's way back to
the store from where I bought it. Ron? W4UT On 5/2/2018 9:29 PM, WW3S wrote:

IC-7000 and LDG IT-100 ,trouble ?!?!?!
开云体育My IC-7000 crapped out, again, at Field day last year, no , or low power on
HF, (don’t think it’s the fuse problem, as the power cord is not fused, connects
to a rigrunner)...second time it happened. and Field day was the first time back
on the air after the other repair.....I was talking to Matt at SARTS and he
asked if by chance I was using an LDG tuner, which I have been, both time it did
this , and he said for some reason the 7000 doesn’t like the LDG tuner, that
even though its on low power, when it does it search the SWR varies too much too
fast.....any one else experience this.....the radio works fin on VHF/UHF, and
receives fine on HF, but only puts out about 15-20 watts or so....Matt suspects
it’s the finals, but the previous repairs had something to do with the driver
circuitry.... |
Re: IC-7000 used value - If it's mint $800 at least

HI, ?The first question should always be what types of antennas are you using?? Any thing else we should be aware of about your installation (mobile, second floor shack with poor RF ground, switching among different antennas on the same band, etc.) ?? ? Some tuners work OK with some antennas and don't work at all with others.... I would avoid MFJ, due to continuing erratic quality control problems. Steve, W3AHL |

开云体育The IT-100 requires that you tune it with the front button or the tune button on the radio, it is not fully automatic.? That is not really evident from the description.? The 100 or 200 Pro II are automatic. ? From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Max White

HI,
I would like to purchase an automatic tuner for my 7k. I have selected the MFJ-939I and the MFJ-993B. ?I would prefer the latter, as it is way more versatile. However, as far as I have understood, when I change frequency, the 939I tunes up without the need to push the "tune" button, while the 993B requires button pushing. Have I understood well?? Any recommendations for a good tuner? 73 Marco |
Re: IC-7000 used value

I have one I would sell. It was a recovery project and is restored to full capability with a new processor. Includes mounting bracket, separation cable, mic. One always worries a bit when the 7000 has been opened up and especially when it has had major surgery like this one. But it works perfectly on all bands. $600 including shipping. Only selling because I have similarly restored IC-7100 and IC-706 and normally use an RS-HFIQ SDR for air so the 7000 is redundant. ? Warren Allgyer - WA8TOD |

Re: An auto tuner for my IC-7000
Hi Marco, I am using for years the LDG Z-100Plus. Same width, but shorter, sits under the IC7000. The special cable furnished for the IC7000 enables using its TUNER button. Is half-price the MFJ993B at least overhere.2018-04-29 23:18 GMT+02:00 MARCO EVANGELISTA <marcoevang@...>: HI, |

I agree about the MFJ automatic tuner.? I have had so many issues with mine, no doubt about it, I would not purchase another one.? It has been a PIA since started using it.?? James Brock 541-868-5827? ?DO NOT ACCEPT TEXTING
