- Video Tutorial on how to perform MARS/ Cap Mod to open TX/ transmit from 136 MHZ to 174. MHZ and 400 Mhz to 470 Mhz continuous on USA Icom IC-T70A. I also explain how to open Rx/ Receive if your rig needs the mod. Very easy to do with just a little patience.

will this be the same procedure for a ICOM IC-V86
I don't know. I've been looking at this one, but I can't find a mod specifically for this one. It looks similar to the t70a, but unless they used the same board, It'd be anyones guess. I actually want to do a video on this, but can't find the info...
@@JLPicard440 There's one single diode (it's a 2m only HT) just to the right of the LCD screen when apart that needs to be removed for full Tx.
@@MrButterpantz Thanks for the info!
Thanks for taking the time and putting in the hard work. We appreciate your tutorials.
nomis nomis thank u for the kind words!
Really appreciate your videos.
Thanks!.... :-)
A radio I can now use both at work and on the Ham bands without buying a cheap Chinese Baofeng or similar junk... Thanks for this one...
Great! Thanks....
Saw this vid several months ago and finally got to it after a "review" Made the same kinda tool you did but had to make two! The first one bent like a aluminum can and was made from a 2X2 inch shelf bracket, 2nd one was hard stainless steel and did the trick. They must install that nut with a 3/4" impact wrench? Buggered the nut up a bit, but still usable. Anyway, thanks for the great write up.
Yea, they put that nut on pretty tight. Unnecessarily tight. Don't try to get it loose with a flat head screwdriver, because it's not happening! Thanks for the comment.. :-)
Really good content keep going
Elicia Vannoy Thank You!
I know I'm going to be repeating a question but the question was 8 months ago is the procedure the same for a v86 have you found that out yet?
HI, it doesn't look the same. I did find this; radioaficion.com/mods/ic-v86-mods/. I do plan to do this mod video as soon as I get a chance..
Tried to look my ic-T70 from japan not an ic-T70A with an (alpha after the number70). I cant find the three diodes. Its already removed with the factory made. How can i modify this ic-T70 model?
I don't know, but you could try mods.dk and see if they have any info on the different versions of the radio.... sorry I couldn't be of more help.. thanks.
Perfect
Thank u!
Im new to Radio devices, but i have a question why they originally making such device to a limited range of frequencies. Thank you for the video its very useful and i will try to follow the steps hopefully i will not destroy the device :)
Good question... I know the Boefeng comes already opened up.. I think it's a requirement from the FCC would be my guess..
Very Good video...Thumbs Up
Thank U!
Meu rádio Ht ICOM ic-v80e parou de receber mensagens só transmite, isso ocorreu depois que usei um microfone,nem quando ligo o rádio faz o barulho tradicional. O que fazer para resetar o som do rádio.
Não tenho certeza, você tentou resetar a fábrica?
Did this mod affect the weather alert feature?
I never tried it to be honest, but I don't see how it could
Wondering because I have the same radio with the mod (I did not do it) and the weather alert option doesn't appear in the menu. No way to activate it. Not knowing the full history of the radio can't be sure the cause....
@@mkudron1 HUH,.. I still have the radio.. I'll look into it this evening and see if I have the WX alert option. If you don't hear back by tomorrow remind me because I might forget!
I tested my radio, and I didn't have any trouble getting the WX alert to turn on... just wanted to let you know... thanks.
That's good to know. I like the radio because it allows me to carry one radio when I'm with the Scout Troop and I can monitor it either the FRS radios that use or can play on the ham bands if I'm in the mood. But I also like to have the weather alert function when we're camping and such. Whatever reason it will not work on my radio but that could be any number of things I suppose and I do not know the history of the radio I bought it fairly inexpensively used.
will this work on V80 or G88 or similar model? Thanks.
I've never tried.... I'd have to see the procedure for both and see if they're the same.... Thanks..
Can you do a video on how to do it for the icom v86?
Yes, I've been thinking about that one recently. I'll see what I can do... Thanks for the suggestion.
@@JLPicard440 it would be great if you could i got the v86 but want to do the mod to it thankyou
@@JLPicard440 hey man dont want to be pushy or anything but do you have any idea when you might do it?
@@Keaton2 It's no problem.. I have to go out and buy one. I don't have the $$ right now.. I'll do it as soon as I can. Thanks.
@@JLPicard440 ok no problem thankyou so much for looking into it and thankyou for letting me know your on it when u get the $$ thankyou man
What exactly does "open tx" mean ? What are the benefits ?
It'll make it TX virtually anywhere it receives.
@@JLPicard440 in any band with? still hard to understand...
Need video for lc-v86
Thank U!.. I'll check into that.
Definitely need one for the v86
Should be pretty similar except the diode placement...can't figure out which one to remove.
@@airborne91x I actually looked for a mod for that one, and couldn't find any info on it. I'll keep checking..
what is the use of removing it
Opens up TX
This works For icon ic v86
Does it? I was going to do a video on that one soon..
