(AO KD5FXT) sent into
the ether:
My 706 has worked great for 2 or 3 years, however, my mkiiG has some problems.
1) my ssb power is only 30 watts on 20-160 meters. (AM power and rtty Power is
ok)
2) SWR and Power Meters seem to be reversed on 20-160 meters.
I use an external tuner to verify this.
3) 440 does not seem to receive.
4) Local service people (Avvid) does not work on the G model
5) Guess it will have to go back to Icom for alignment at $75 / hour
Try the Icom reflector. It's a great group of people.
