PRECAUTIONS

R WARNING RF EXPOSURE! This device emits Radio Frequency (RF) energy. Extreme caution should be observed when operating this device. If you have any questions regarding RF exposure and safety standards please refer to the Federal Communications Commission Office of Engineering and Technology’s report on Evaluating Compliance with FCC Guidelines for Human Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields (OET Bulletin 65).

RWARNING HIGH VOLTAGE! NEVER attach an antenna or internal antenna connector during transmission. This may result in an electrical shock or burn.

R NEVER apply AC to the [DC13.8V] socket on the transceiver rear panel. This could cause a fire or damage the transceiver.

R NEVER apply more than 16 V DC, such as a 24 V battery, to the [DC13.8V] jack on the transceiver rear panel. This could cause a fire or damage the transceiver. RNEVER let metal, wire or other objects touch any internal part or connectors on the rear panel of the transceiver. This may result in an electric shock.

R NEVER connect or use the HM-151 (microphone) with other transceiver. This could cause damage to the

transceiver. The HM-151 is designed for use with the IC7000 ONLY

NEVER expose the transceiver to rain, snow or any liquids.

AVOID using or placing the transceiver in areas with temperatures below –10°C (+14°F) or above +60°C (+140°F). Be aware that temperatures on a vehicle’s dashboard can exceed +80°C (+176°F), resulting in permanent damage to the transceiver if left there for extended periods.

AVOID placing the transceiver in excessively dusty environments or in direct sunlight.

AVOID placing the transceiver against walls or putting anything on top of the transceiver. This will obstruct heat dissipation.

Place unit in a secure place to avoid inadvertent use by children.

During mobile operation, NEVER place the transceiver where air bag deployment may be obstructed.

During mobile operation, DO NOT place the transceiver where hot or cold air blows directly onto it.

During mobile operation, DO NOT operate the transceiver without running the vehicle’s engine. When the transceiver’s power is ON and your vehicle’s engine is OFF, the vehicle’s battery will soon become exhausted.

Make sure the transceiver power is OFF before starting the vehicle. This will avoid possible damage to the transceiver by ignition voltage spikes.

During maritime mobile operation, keep the transceiver and microphone as far away as possible from the magnetic navigation compass to prevent erroneous indications.

BE CAREFUL! The rear panel will become hot when operating the transceiver continuously for long periods.

BE CAREFUL! If a linear amplifier is connected, set the transceiver’s RF output power to less than the linear amplifier’s maximum input level, otherwise, the linear amplifier will be damaged.

Use Icom microphones only (supplied or optional). Other manufacturer’s microphones have different pin assignments, and connection to the IC-7000 may damage the transceiver.

Beat signals may be heard on some frequencies. These will occur as a result of circuit construction.

For U.S.A. only

Caution: Changes or modifications to this transceiver, not expressly approved by Icom Inc., could void your authority to operate this transceiver under FCC regulations.

qAF GAIN CONTROL [AF(SET)] (inner control; p. 33)

Rotate to vary the audio output level from the speaker or headphones.

Audio output increases

Audio outut decreases

Push momentarily to enter the set mode menu.

•Push again to exit the set mode menu.

Push and hold for 1 sec. to toggle between the frequency display mode or TV mode.

wRF GAIN CONTROL/SQUELCH CONTROL [RF/SQL] (outer control; p. 35)

Adjusts the RF gain and squelch threshold level. The squelch, when closed, mutes the speaker or headphones when no signal is received, reducing noise.

•The squelch is particularly effective for FM and WFM modes. It is also available in other modes.

•12 to 1 o’clock position is recommended for any setting of the [RF/SQL] control.

•The control can be set to ‘Auto’ (RF gain control in SSB, CW and RTTY; squelch control in AM, FM and WFM) or squelch control (RF gain is fixed at maximum) in the miscellaneous (others) set mode as follows. (p. 131)

•When the RIT or ∂TX function is ON, push and hold [F-1 RIT] or [F-2 ∂TX] for 1 sec. to add or subtract the frequency shift to the display frequency.

What is the RIT function?

RIT (Receiver Incremental Tuning) shifts the receive frequency without shifting the transmit frequency.

This is useful for fine tuning for stations calling you off frequency or when you prefer to listen to slightly differentsounding voice characteristics, etc.

What is the TX function?

The ∂TX shifts the transmit frequency without shifting the receive frequency. This is useful for simple split frequency operation in CW, etc.

2INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS

Unpacking

After unpacking, immediately report any damage to the delivering carrier or dealer. Keep the shipping cartons.

For a description and a diagram of accessory equipment included with the IC-7000, see ‘Supplied accessories’ on p. i-1 of this manual.

Selecting a location

Select a location for the transceiver that allows adequate air circulation, free from extreme heat, cold, or vibrations, and away from TV sets, TV antenna elements, radios and other electromagnetic sources.

The base of the transceiver has an adjustable stand for desktop use. Set the stand to one of two angles depending on your operating conditions. (see description on right hand page)

Grounding

To prevent electrical shock, television interference (TVI), broadcast interference (BCI) and other problems, ground the transceiver through the GROUND terminal on the rear panel.

For best results, connect a heavy gauge wire or strap to a long, buried copper rod. Make the distance between the [GND] terminal and ground as short as possible.

R WARNING: NEVER connect the [GND] ter-

minal to a gas pipe or electric conduit, since the

connection could cause an explosion or electric shock.

Antenna connection

For radio communications the antenna is of critical importance for output power and sensitivity. Use wellmatched 50-ohm antennas and coaxial feedline. An SWR (standing wave radio) of 1.5:1 or lower is recommended when transmitting.

CAUTION: Protect your transceiver from lightning by using a lightning arrestor.

Slide the connector body on and solder it.

Screw the coupling ring onto the connector body.

ANTENNA SWR

Each antenna is tuned for a specified frequency range and SWR increases outside that range. When the SWR is higher than approx. 2.0 : 1, the transceiver’s power drops to protect the final transistors. In this case, an antenna tuner is used to match the transceiver and antenna. Low SWR allows full power for transmitting even when using the antenna tuner. The IC-7000 has an SWR meter to monitor the antenna SWR continuously.
