Re: Display distortion
I have never seen this distortion before but I’m thinking it’s most likely in the actual LCD. I’m going to guess that with round trip shipping, one hour of shop time and the part, you’ll be

Re: No 12 volts at antennae tuner plug
There is no internal fuse for the 12 volts on the tuner connector. There is a surface mounted choke on the DDS unit that’s probably burned out. Depending on how bad it is, there might be some

I just purchased this Icom 7000 used and connected it to my Icom AT180 tuner. It was connected to my 7300 and worked fine. No tune on 7000 so I checked for 12 volts on the tuner plug but its zero

Re: Power Output Meter Reading Low
Hi Al.
?I have been watching this thread. I have two IC7000's, one is my main rig in Cape May. As long as the rig has the proper output, I would not mess with it. I would say it would be ill-advised

Re: Power Output Meter Reading Low

Or there could be an issue with the power detector circuit.? Also, the TX Output Power adjustments are done at one frequency (10 MHz on the 7K for HF).? Actual TX power output can vary among bands

Re: Power Output Meter Reading Low
So, in the service menu transmitter power settings the radio expects to see the correctly adjusted power levels for 25, 50, 75 and 100% settings thereby "calibrating" the output power indication. This

If its producing 100 watts at the load then it isn't a fuse issue. I've had the fuse issue before, and the power output vs indicated power out still went hand in hand, only at a lower
