Nice work Tommy! It’s so gratifying to fix this stuff even after all these years. My wife still asks why I don’t send the radio off for repair, I do know a guy close by that services these. I

GREAT NEWS!!! I found the problem and resolved it. The problem was an open circuit on one side of L305 output transformer. The open circuit was caused by a manufacturing flaw (quality control). I

So the change in components and not the schematics is very common. I had two Icom 706 MkII G's, one a low serial number and one a later version, the early one used Motorola finals on the PA board.

Craig, From what you observed, it does sound like they were replaced. I've run across this with stereo gear. It's usually recommended by experienced techs to replace with what was there if it was

Fair point Bob about the making a change from the manufacturer. The 2 capacitors i mentioned were a different brand than the others of the same rating and the solder joints didn’t look the same as

Every once in a while if you find a part that doesn't match the schematic, such as you found a 47uF where you expected a 100uF, doesn't always mean someone installed the wrong part. Sometimes the

Your story reinforces what is a very typical scenario during repairs of most anything.? Yes, sometimes thing fail in spectacular ways (lightning strike, water damage) that make a repair attempt

This email thread has great timing. Have 3 of these awesome rigs and a previous one lost the cap. Sent it to a friend hamrepair.com in SA Texas. Just have that failure again, now I'm inspired to fix

The 7000 manual says for an amp relay not to exceed 16 volts @ 200mA. I did work on a Clipperton a few years ago. I don't remember the current draw but I do remember it was more than 16 volts so you

The IC-7000 has very small relays that do the switching and they are hard to change. I used the MFJ ARB 704 interface box with an Heathkit SB-200.

Ed, I don’t have specific information, but an area of concern is the IC7000 circuit that switches the amp from stand-by to operate. The voltage/current requirements of the amp might exceed the

Anything special about connecting a IC-7000 to a Clipperton-L Linear?

Hi, I'm looking for the ic-7000 DSP unit spare part Thanks and 73, Stefano

Craig,? ?I've been doing surface mount and through hole repairs for years (40 +). you? can glue the trace back down with superglue but use an accelerent, epoxy will work, but you have to wait for

Hi, When the two 12v tants are nearly all SC after 20 years, if one holds the power on button in for too long this takes the 4R7 resistor on the underside of the logic power supply board. The

This is very insightful and inspiring, Craig. Thank you for sharing your experiences. ismail gmail.com@groups.io> wrote:

Hey everyone, I am new to this group and I am in the process of repairing a few IC-7000s.? One was given to me by my grandfather and the other was my dad's that failed and was deemed irreparable due

I appreciate all the instructions and advice from Andrew, JD and James. It has been a few days since I last did any testing. So far, I have found nothing that is causing the output power to be so
