Re: Audio Levels Very Low - Normal?
Agreed.? Consider checking voltage at the mic plug (carefully). Should be +8 volts. See attachment.Russ

Re: Audio Levels Very Low - Normal?
Does it have low audio on FM and AM? Have you listened to it? How much power are you putting out on SSB?
ALC might not tell the whole story about audio.
Try a reset in case some settings have been

Re: Audio Levels Very Low - Normal?
I don't know what mike you are using, but Icom, especially the older ones, need a high output to function correctly.
Most are electret amplified and have + voltage on the mike lead to provide the

Audio Levels Very Low - Normal?
I recently purchased a used IC-7000 that did not come with a Mic.? I bought a no-name one on Amazon and it had very low audio levels, I can hardly get the ALC to budge unless I drop plosives into the

Re: NEW ICOM METER with CI-V for 16 ICOM radios
Bit more relevant in newer radios with bandscope to free up screen of the radio..

Re: NEW ICOM METER with CI-V for 16 ICOM radios
Jadief, yes, and I need a beta tester for 9100 please send me email, can't give it away but will give you more than fair price to beta test it, fix any issues and refund if not working... ve2dx at

Re: NEW ICOM METER with CI-V for 16 ICOM radios
But, actually, no need for it. IC-7k displays all the information i need, never had problems with it

Re: NEW ICOM METER with CI-V for 16 ICOM radios
Without looking back in this thread, is the IC-9100 included in what the NEW ICOM METER will work with?

Re: NEW ICOM METER with CI-V for 16 ICOM radios
The 7K has only a forward power detector circuit for VHF/UHF -- no reverse power detector.? So it has no SWR checking.? It relies on the SWR foldback built into the PA FETS, which I'm not sure is a

Re: NEW ICOM METER with CI-V for 16 ICOM radios
We are still beta testing before final release will look carefully into that on this and other radios like 746pro, etc...

Re: NEW ICOM METER with CI-V for 16 ICOM radios
My understanding was that it still had a swr checker but didn¡¯t display it.
It limits transmit power when high swr is found on VHF and UHF correct?

Re: NEW ICOM METER with CI-V for 16 ICOM radios
The IC-7000 doesn't have an SWR detector for 2m, 70 cm bands, so a meter that only reads ci-v data from the radio won't display VHF/UHF SWR, only HF.

Re: NEW ICOM METER with CI-V for 16 ICOM radios
still doing beta tests, need to find a 7000, let recheck some of the ci-v commands to verify... I will add this to 7000, 746, 9700, etc...

Re: NEW ICOM METER with CI-V for 16 ICOM radios
Affraid not Larry, the 756ProII is missing a couple of important CI-V commands that really was hurting us when trying to included them, we went as far as we could looking into 30 different ICOM radios

Re: NEW ICOM METER with CI-V for 16 ICOM radios
That's excellent! Does it show SWR when transmitting on 2 meter / 70 cm
from an IC7000?

Re: 2m/432 Antennas
Thanks, Steve.? That's very valuable input.
While I know the arrow beams and guys who have worked the satellites with one, my intent would be weak signal -- SSB, CW, FT8 or something like that.?
