    Just followed your procedure as found your tutorial video confidence inspiring enough for me to tackle this repair. I went for the negative lcd look. Regards.

    I miss my 706! Wish I didn’t give it up!

      These are excellent HF radios. The original IC-706 was manufactured from 1995 - 1996 before the MKIIG series was produced, which was manufactured from 1999 - 2009. And the IC-703 QRP model was released in 2002. Today the used resale value is $300. - $500. which proves how amazing these units are.

    Looks good. But my display isn't green but orange.

      IC-703 QRP radios have a orange screen. The repair works the same way for both the IC-703 and IC-706 units.

    QUESTION I am running the ic706mk2 and been told there is a Battery in the unit, either in the main body or the external, I have open the main unit and have not found the battery, can you tell me where to look for it

      There isn't a battery in the radios control-head that I'm aware of. I'm only familiar with the control-head. Here's a link to the service manual. After a quick look. I could not find the battery. It might not be a coin type battery? I'm curios now too. It has to have some sort of internal power for the memory. What is this issue? Why do you need to find the battery?
      Factory reset: With radio turned off - Press the Power button and the "Down" Band button (located in bottom right corner) at the same time. This will re-boot the radio to its original factory settings.

    What adhesive did you use to re-attach the 2 communication strips? I guess it is important to keep the ports clear.

    • @KG5JMV
      @KG5JMV  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I don't use adhesive. I use the metal frame to group everything together and snap it back in place. Hope this helps.
