991A is a heck of a lot bigger, no removable face and isn't mobile friendly..?
The 7000 is a pretty unique radio and can fill several niches.? ?

Blasphemy but a Yaesu 991A is just a little more and has all the bands as well as a more modern receiver. With a warrantee.

Re: I hear audio in the speaker when transmitting
Hi, I checked the voltage on the accessory molex(4pin tuner) , on the back of the radio, and noticed a difference between reception and transmission of 1 volt. Trying at max power in FM the voltage passes from 13.72 (RX) to 12.70 (TX). It's to normal 1v drop? Thank you

Re: I hear audio in the speaker when transmitting
The mic lead had a open shield at its connector, so fault was the in the mic lead not the radio.
Hi Jeff,
i'm using the original ic706 mic, i haven't tried another mic. I tried plugging it into the back connector as well but it's the same. Was your problem inside the microphone or on the connector? thanks

I've had rf getting into a mic during Tx due to a bad shielding connection.

IC7300 is only HD/ 50mhz? IC7000 is vhf/uhf/hf But a new IC7300 has a warranty.? Since you say your 7K is NIB, has it ever been powered up and checked out? Are you certain it has no infantile failures? n7mk

Exactly right, but a NIB IC-7000 is worth about $800 which is still less than an an IC-7300.

You don't? but ham radio's for investment purposes..
Last spring, at Claremore (Oklahoma State ARRL Convention) I bought a IC-7000 as close to "New in Box" as there is.. The guy was at the table next to me.. As the 2 day swap progressed his price came down and my sales progressed to where about 2 hours before the show was over and all the crowds had waned. $500 was the final price. Now-some will say I wore him out. Not so, 3000-4000 people had a chance to buy it before me.? I have one all ready in my car. But having a backup is a good thing. Saves taking a big box radio somewhere like POTA-SOTA or some vacation. I hate learning new menus and setups.. etc.

I have had three of them and enjoyed each.
Two I bought from an estate sale and they were Click - Click dead and I was able to fix one, bought another one as a spare and then was able to fix the third with a donor dead front panel that was repairable.
For the time I used these radios they provided great service and are absolutely beautiful radios.
A few problems and replacing a driver and other trouble issues along the way and the decreasing availability of replacement parts led me to sell (slowly) and buy an IC-7300.
The last one was sold to finance buying an IFR FM/AM 1200 Super S communications monitor.
So I am IC-7000less and I still miss them! I should have kept at least one of them, but I may get over it.
The IC-7000s are getting a little long in the tooth but are still a beautiful radio and a new one might be worth $1200 to the right buyer. I suggest advertising on Ebay to find that buyer.
