I then set the ALC on the IC-PW1 amplifier and I was ready to go just after 0001Z on the 22nd. I had to route DC power to the PRO III since the ‘775 has it’s own internal power supply. When I got home, I disconnected all the cables going to my IC-775DSP and replaced it with one of the PRO III’s in a matter of minutes. I had already made a questionable SSB QSO and a good PSK31 contact, but a solid SSB and CW contact still eluded me. With the VU4 DXpedition underway, I was anxious to get the radios home and in a more quiet environment to try to work them on CW. The first thing I noticed was how well the noise blanker and noise reduction functions worked. Since my office is located in an industrial park, there is a lot of noise. Everything was quite well laid out, the manual was informative and operation of the radio was quite easy. In a couple of hours, by going through the manual and testing the different functions of the radio, I felt comfortable with it right away.
Since it was the week of Christmas, it was slow enough to allow me to unpack one and connect it to the Cushcraft A3S tribander I have on a 50′ tower at work. And he did – two new PRO III’s which arrived on December 21, 2004. When I told him “Kenwood”, he asked “What do we have to do to get you to run Icom radios?”. After several consecutive winning efforts in the NAQP RTTY event, Ray asked me what kind of radios I used. Ray is heavily involved in Icom’s award sponsorship for the NAQP RTTY contests held in February and July each year. There is more picture in the PDF file.Thanks to Ray Novak N9JA with Icom America for allowing me to evaluate the new Icom IC-756PROIII. The tx-range is 1,6 Mc - 30 Mc & 50 Mc - 54 Mc when you execute the mod.ĭownload B&B Technical Services Amateur Radio Repair article about this mod. Your Icom IC756PROII version #23 EU is original like the dioderow "version #03 before modification" that you can read in the article. If you have an IC756PROII version #23 EU-model and want expand the TX range: Read my article placed for IC756PRO and change the diode-row according to "after version 3" mod.
