Re: Power Output Meter Reading Low
Measure it with a good Watt meter, sounds like to me it is a low pass filter coil check for dry joints 73 Andrew ?Get BlueMail for Android ?

Re: Power Output Meter Reading Low
Hi Al I know this is an old thread did you ever get to the bottom of this, one of my 7000s shows something similar but only on 10m, its 100w on HF and 6m no problems at all but on 10m, the power bar

Re: L604, L612, L904 setpoints
Thank you so much Andrew for jumping in. My CMU200 can set the output down low enough. How do you minimize leakage for the WFM adjustments? I am going to double check with the oscilloscope when I get

Re: L604, L612, L904 setpoints
Hi I have replied a fair few of these radios, all with 100% success. With regards alignment I have never had to pefrom this on received. I have set up the bias on PA transistors after replacement,

Re: L604, L612, L904 setpoints
I was planning on making a video of the process once I get the kinks worked out. I am learning and this is not an easy radio to work on, and I¡¯m suspecting the service manual has some typos, or I am

Re: Upside-down display on external monitor
It¡¯s probably a setting on the monitor to allow you to hang it from above. See if there is a menu setting to flip vertical. 73 David W4OFO

Re: Upside-down display on external monitor
Hi Stephen, Oh you were very clear.? I was just trying to be funny. It sounds like a monitor problem.? To be sure, I think you may have to try it on another monitor.? Many modern TVs offer a video

Re: Upside-down display on external monitor
Just in case I was unclear in my initial message, the display on my IC-7000 is rightside-up. It is the display on the external monitor that is upside-down. VY 73 de W3UECSteve

Hi Stephen, Any chance your IC-7000 is an Australia or NZ model?? Maybe you'll have to use inversion boots.? :-) Halden VE7UTS

Re: L604, L612, L904 setpoints
Thanks, Craig! I was using an online tone generator and an oscilloscope to look at the amplitude.? It also had a lot of noise on it; possibly an AM station picked up along the way and maybe provided

Upside-down display on external monitor
Being encouraged by recent posts about using external monitor with IC-7000, I hooked up an abandoned monitor and found that the display was quite clear and accurate; but is upside-down. I cannot

Re: IC-7000 external video display
Oh yes, There was an option for an external monitor. I do remember that now. I think I purchased one but never used it. I ended up selling it years later. ¡®73 de Jim N2ZZ Sent: Wednesday, April 30,

Re: IC-7000 external video display
Hi Jim, Removing a diode was to allow the IC-7000 to become a VHF TV receiver...yep, watch a TV channel on your rig. I was always intrigued by this mod but I never was really interested in watching TV

Re: L604, L612, L904 setpoints
ALRIGHT! Found issue and now I¡¯m doing the alignment top to bottom. For L604, L612, and L904, I ran them all the way up and adjusted them all the way down. Changes are minimal, leave them as is,

Re: No bias current on Q401
Holden, My recent experience with the uhf MOSFET was the same as yours. The ¡° Final Idle Current¡± setting was negligible. UHF power out was around 10W. I removed 401 and it tested bad. You have to

Re: No bias current on Q401
Hi, The ribbon cables are easy to replace buy a set from Icom they are cheap, what is difficult, is fitting them to the radio, one in particular connects to the PA board which has to be removed to fit

Halden, I can't comment on the transistor but I'm curious how difficult it was to replace the ribbon cable on the rear of the main board? Bob W4JFA [email protected]> wrote:

Re: Interpreting transmitter adjustment instructions
I would use CW or FM to set power. as 3mV audio only applies to SSB and AM. And most electret microphones give far more than 3mV! I can not remember if VHF and UHF share the same transistor, wuthout
