I have for sale an Icom 7000 HF/6m/2m/70cm IF-DSP mobile sized radio with the
mic, and power cord, which would make a great VHF contesting or roving package.
In fact, its primary use was for both of these, including the recent CQVHF
contest. It covers the most popular VHF/UHF contesting bands (sorry if you like
222, 1.2GHZ or 10GHZ more) at decent power levels, and has some nice contesting
features as well.
This model does 100 watts on HF and 6m, 50 watts on 2m, and 35 watts on 70cm.
Has IF DSP so no optional filters are needed, a built in voice keyer, built in
CW memory keyer, TCXO, and a a nice color display. The voice keyer and CW
memory keyer are great for calling CQ during contests and sending the exchange,
saving your voice.
In addition it comes with:
the full separation kit which is not easy to find today. It is missing the
screws for the separation cable but they should be easy to find on Amazon or
Ebay.
For FT8 or MSK144 it comes with a Rigblaster NOMIC with a USB to DB9 cable for
PTT switching, a RJ45 cable to use the mic jack, and a cable for the radio
speaker jack to the rigblaster. You can easy make up a cable for the ACC or
data jack on the radio using a RJ45 cable and the correct plug. It has a spare
RJ45 to RJ45 cable to use for this purpose.
It also has a Comet CF706 diplexer so you can use 6m/2m/70cm with a single
antenna.
It also has
an extra HM-151 hand mic
LDG 7000 autotuner 100 watts on HF and 6 meters. Less on digital modes
A vinyl dust cover
A 7 inch LCD TV/monitor for a larger screen view
a RJ45 to 8 pin round mic adapter cable for a desk mic
and a few other assorted extra cables.
The radio works fine but has some residue on the top (pictures available) from
a muffin fan being placed on top to keep the rig cooler. The fan is included
and it is powered by the tuner jack on the radio, and this jack has the
interface plug for the LDG 7000 tuner as well, so you can run both at the same
time.
This radio is loaded with features and in demand since no one makes a mobile
sized HF/VHF/UHF radio all in 1 piece any more.
Asking $1100 shipped for all. I will consider packages of various forms as
well. Base price for the radio, power cord, and 1 hand mic would be $675
shipped, and we can adjust prices for various packages going from there.
Pay with paypal and have it in time for next weeks CQVHF digital contest. I can
also take MO/check/cashapp.
