High Sierra Antennas and the IC-7000.
Keith LaBorde - K4KAL
Guys,
I have been anxiously waiting for a new Icom Mobile. Every year at Dayton I asked the same question, and they say NO. I own three 706MKIIg's. I have one in each vehicle, and a spare in the closet for field day, etc. I exchanged a few emails with High Sierra today to confirm that there I-Box Controller will still plug into the new IC-7000. Jim must have known about the radio or talked to Icom because he said it would work with no problems. The IC-7000 has the same plug on the rear as the 706 Series. So there looks to be some compatibility. I know he sells his antenna's all over the world, so I was glad to here that my 1800/Pro and Sidekick will work with no problems. I am sure I will get one of these new radio's when they are available. My big wish is they increased the output power? I guess we will see it under the glass at Dayton 2005.

I believe the IC-R7000 receiver came first. 73 de Rob VE4RRB IC-7000 Moderator ----- Original Message -----

开云体育I'm not saying this is a hoax...
But didn't Icom already use the IC-7000 name for a
receiver already?
?

As I wrote around 1 week ago, I had a defective Driver board on my 7K. As I received the new boart from my ICOM dealer, I did the replaceing myself and then discowered that there was no heat compound between the copper strip on the driver board and the heatsink. Even worse is that the copper strip is not flat so only the ends are in touch with the sink. The power dissipation in the driver is 14W independent of the output level (class A). I think the problem must be the missing heat transfer from the transistor via the copper strip to the heatsink. I would advice to make the copper strip flat before installing it by fileing it with a fine file to be sure the heat transfer is as good as possible and also use heat compound. 73, es LA2NI Kjell On Fri, 14 Sep 2007 05:35:39 +0200, John Chandler <jch45975@...> wrote:
Hi Chuck - I was quite concerned to see your post on the driver board etc. Well my friend you "ain't alone" as mine has done exactly the same thing twice. The last trip back to Icom Australia from the selling dealer resulted in them contacting Japan for assistance. I heard 2nd hand that an earth loop mod corrected the problem and I have had the 7k back in use now for about a week with no drama so far. The first time it went up in flames and filled the shack with nasty smoke. In fact the dealer smelt the 7K in it'[s box as I took it through his door. The 2nd demise (after 3days back) saw no smoke and flames but a distinct phtttttt was heard. The driver FET is used for HF, VHF and UHF. Apart from those probs which were fixed under W/Ty I guess I was content with the rig!!!!!! BTW., the rig still smells slightly so I hope that may disappear. Hats off to the local dealer UHF Comms. here in Townsville for their W/Ty service on boh occasions. This 7K was one of three purchase! --
