Re: [IC-7000] Reception on 6 meters
Hi Paul you do realise the 6 meter output and receive is on the HF port of the radio not on the VHF/UHF port. a common enough mistake to make.??????????????? Best regards robert G6LLP

Re: [IC-7000] Reception on 6 meters
Did you try to use a antenna tuner and push the tune button? that is assuming you are using a antenna tuner for HF 6 meter.

Re: [IC-7000] Reception on 6 meters
Except that 6m FM seems to be more susceptible to local electrical noise than 2m. And because of the size of antennas, etc, many don't as easily have the height/site advantages that are more common on

Re: [IC-7000] Reception on 6 meters
I've found 6m simplex to be generally equal to or better than 2m, especially in hilly areas. -- 73 de Tony VK3JED/VK3IRL http://vkradio.com

Re: [IC-7000] Reception on 6 meters
Would assume your repeater has a very good height advantage... on a mountain or hill. Mark

Re: Reception on 6 meters
Sounds lilke your 7k rx has its tone ?squelch "on" (dial.shows "CT"). ?The repeater apparently has tone access only. ?It does not transmit the subaudible tone, So your 7K stays muted on the rptr.

Re: [IC-7000] Reception on 6 meters
Perhaps use a duplexer, such as a DIAMOND MX-62M, instead of switching to and from the HF and VHF/UHF connectors. -- Jim, KG4FXV ? . The 7000 uses one antenna connector for VHF/UHF, and another for

Re: [IC-7000] Reception on 6 meters
They might have set the antenna up with a duplexer to use it with both antenna ports, but the duplexer may have been zapped if it wasn't for high power. This message was delivered by flying

Re: [IC-7000] Reception on 6 meters
You raise a very good point Brian. 10-15 miles simplex on 6 meter FM would be a bit of a challenge. 6M is more line of sight than the lower frequencies. You would need a pretty good LOS path for it to

Re: [IC-7000] Reception on 6 meters
The 7000 uses one antenna connector for VHF/UHF, and another for HF (thru 54 MHz). Using a triband antenna, you must switch the triband antenna between the transceiver antenna connections when going

Re: [IC-7000] Reception on 6 meters
Are you sure this was simplex, or were you on a repeater-freq. On certain sections of the particular bands, the radio automatically becomes a half-duplex radio: different rx & tx freqs. When you key

Re: [IC-7000] Reception on 6 meters
One would assume so if he is able to get into a repeater 17 miles away. There are lots of things locally that can cause your receiver to be deaf. Many kinds of electrical interference. You may not
