That is NOT a Signalink Box.

It makes a good firestarter.

This is so true... We call him "Stink Bug" no matter how many times, you try to get rid of him, he keeps coming back. Back in the 80's we threw him off of 160 meters... He did NOT belong there, as he was no "Gentlemen" NO one wanted to talk to him or listen to him.

I have an Icom 703+ and I would like to run it on a battery. What type of connector is on the power cord, 6" out the back the radio ? I would like to pick up another one, and use it to connect the battery to the radio. Thanks in advance, Dave - N2JBO

Yes, 10 meters is really coming around. In NY here we use KQ2H repeater system.... 29.620 linked up with 9 different inputs, from dawn to daylight. Just google KQ2H_repeater and see all the possibilties. We have stations coming in from all over the world each and every day. 73 de...

I have my Icom 703+ hooked up to my Vista Laptop running Windows 7 (64Bit) using HRD 5.0, DM780 and everythings looks and works fine. I have a N5BIA ISOCat in line to make the radio to PC hookup. I tune to 14.071 USB and call CQ. The program says I am transmitting, the radio is keyed up...

Thanks for the reply. I tried it. But, does NOT change the display back to it's original size...

I just picked up this nice little rig. But, the Display has ENLARGED numbers on it. How can I change it back to normal size ? Thanks in advance, Dave - N2JBO

Gentlemen, I do a lot of listening, while I am limited to a REHAB facility, on my VX8R. After a few minutes I hear a "POP" from the speaker and then the receive gets all "Tinny Sounding" I turn the radio OFF for a while and then resume listening and the receive is back to normal. DO I have a...

Yes, I have the meter plugged in correctly to read the functions of the radio from underneath the front panel. I love the INRAD filter, it really makes a difference in working around crowded sations in plie-ups. One would think, when the radio is switched OFF, the Light would go OFF...

I got my Yaesu FT-897D w/ Internal P.S. last week and I just love it. I purchased the LDG 897 Tuner and the IRAD SSB Filter, and the LDG FT-Meter to go along with it. My problem is with the LDG FT-Meter, I hooked it up by pluging the wires in to the DC connector on the back of the radio...

Thank you very much. I tried what you suggested and it works fine now. "You the Man" Best of 73 de Dave - N2JBO "Just Being Obnoxious"

I checked all the contact points on the connecting cable. Everything looks fine. I never removed the head completely, So, the contacts were never inteupted. I tried reversing the cable, check each connector under a magnifying glass, not a problem. I have the radio hooked up to an Astron...

I do not see any "Brass Tabs" behind the faceplate, only the connector for the short connection cable ???

My FT-857D won't power up I was using the rig just a little while ago. I had it powered up and tried to UNLOCK the head and reposition the mike cable to the bottom instead of the side of the radio. The radio just shut down. I checked the 2 fuses on the power cord, okay, the LDG Z-100 tuner...

Thank you all for the replies. I was just tired and could not see straight, I found the correct buttons. All is well. I am thoroughly enjoying my NEW RIG. 73 de Dave - N2JBO "Just Being Obnoxious":thumbup:

How do I get the radio to go above 33 MHz ? I have all my HF frequencies programmed in, but I turn the Select knob and it goes from 0.000 - 33.000 and then back to 0.000 This has me baffled. Thanks in advance, Dave
