hello, For those interrested I am starting on a project to automaticaly control the YEASU ATAS-100/120 HF antenna using an ICOM radio like the IC7000. It will be most likely Arduino based, using CI-V to snif freq, S-Meter and SWR info and the D4 antenna controller to control the radio. I am looking at multiple variation from very small package with just a couple LED indiccators to 2X16 and 4X40 LCD to TFT Color LCD with touch screen. for older ICOM radios missing some of the needed CI-V commands (pre IC-706mkIIG), I will had an SWR bridge to adress this. still a long way to go but look here for updates. 73 Richard VE2DX

Greetings and Happy new year. I recently needed to change vehicles and I am looking to scale down the whole setup inside and outside the vehicle. I had a tri bander for 2m, 220, and 440 and simply used a mag mount for that antenna. I have decided to just run one rig to simplify things. For HF I have an Icom 7000. As most of you will agree this is an awesome radio..I can almost run with the big dogs, and certainly sound as good as most 100 watt stations. The 7000 is setup now for 2m and 440 machines in my local area and working well, for HF I was contemplating either an ATAS or maybe one of those Icom tuners with lets say a 100 inch whip or thereabouts. Anyone have experience with either of these setups? I have been told that the MFJ controller for the ATAS needs a modification to be compatible with the 7000, and once done it does not show the SWR meter during tuning. I'm thinking maybe using the MFJ control to key the radio after switching to CW so I can tune via the SWR meter. All of this fooling around to tune basically just puts me back to the system i used before. Possibly an Icom tuner at the base of the antenna with a reasonably sized whip may be so much easier. Any Thoughts? Thanks in advance Phil K2RRX Sent with Proton Mail secure emal

Hi, I'm having an odd issue with my IC-7000. It has an odd behavior that it will loose RX and TX when changing the frequency. Power cycling the radio allows it to come back but moving the dial will make it go deaf again. I was able to verify that the 1st LO goes away when this error happens. The 2nd and 3rd LO are still outputting fine. I probed all the inputs of the 1st DDS, 1DST/PCK/PDT/PRES/1CN0/1CN1, but am unsure what a correct input looks like. I am able to verify there is a signal going into DDS FI201 but not DDS D301 when it is in the error state. I have not pulled the metal shielding off to access IC301 directly yet. I did noticed grounding PRES while spinning the dial will reset IC301 and the 1st LO will come back to allow RX for a brief moment. I have changed out all the ribbon cables and traced the signals as close to DDS IC301 as I can. I have noticed that PRES and 1CN0 are always set high. DST, PCK, PDT, and 1CN1 will pulse when I spin the dial. Does anyone know the behavior of these inputs? Is there anything else I can try? 73, Bill N6HA

Could someone shed some light What is MP853 it is shown only in thesevice manual bud no indication what it does or its use?

I'm looking to take the IC-7000 into the field in a pack. I am concerned about damage to the radio connections and controls. What has been your experience with operating with side rails on the IC-7000. Straight side rails look to interfer with controls. Ken KI7HER

I recently sold my IC-7000 with remote MB-60 and MB-105. I have for sale a mint (new when I bought it a few years ago) front panel display control head. It has less maybe 1-2 hours of use and it works like a new display, 100%. Last checked this week before I packaged up the IC-7K for shipping. Asking $300 which includes USPS Priority shipping to continental USA. USPS Money Order, Personal Check or Zelle. I originally bought it with the idea of making a custom split cable (and switch) to have one display control head in my basement workroom and the other display control head upstairs in the shack. Never got around to it though so my loss is your gain. ICOM never put serial numbers on these heads so I am nervous about selling it and someone swapping a bad head for a return. Therefore, I will place the buyers initials in indelible marker ink on the back of the panel head (tiny letters, I promise) just for my own peace of mind.

Hi , I am having an icom ic7000 ,relay click error radio ,with an extra CPU, let me know any members need as parts ,I can give as a whole radio with DC cable and microphone,or as individual spare parts board,the radio is intact not serviced by anyone,i will be able to seperate each board if get max response for this offer ,contact me if any one interested,attached the pics here, 73 Prabhu
