Patiently awating the arrival of my Icom ic-7000

[romakdaddy]

i actually checked the shipping and its due to arrive monday(tomorrow).the seller is an honerable man indeed,he sent the radio out as soon as i said ill buy it and said i could give it a once over before i send my check.they dont make people like that too much any more.

I have 2 IC-7000, great radio. I had my one mic upgraded by AB5N, works great will be sending my other one to him soon. I have one mounted in my truck and the other I use for portable back-up use. I sure you'll enjoy it a lot of radio in a very little package.

I think ICOM did a good job on fixing the mic gain issues on the newer runs. I have heard recordings of my audio and wouldn't change a thing. At least play with the various bandwidth settings and get some objective reports before sending your mic to be modded. Might save a few bucks.

Hutch, I'm looking real hard at this rig as a mobil. What antenna are you using with the IC-7000? Thanks!

sent my mic to bob today for the upgrade since it had the japanese one.

Bob is great to deal with, he did my mic 2+ years ago and if you have questions or help later he answers emails quickly.

I LOVE my IC7000 and said I'd never sell it but I am now to pay for a 756 pro 3 I bought this week. I wanted one for a while and got a great deal on a late model #. I realy hate selling the 7K but my buget is I sell one piece of equipment to replace it with another.

It sucks but it is what it is.
