Well, I've been apart of this list for quite awhile now but I pretty much keep to myself. I've enjoyed reading all the different issues that everyone has and ...
Alan, Given what I know today about the radio, I would still buy it. For what I do with it (APRS and 2m FM and simplex), it's a great little radio. Antenna? ...
Buy it it is a good rig. I have never had any problems with mine. Bill Toth W8WLT@... ... From: Alan McCurdy To: TMD700A@yahoogroups.com Sent: Tuesday,...
Hi Alan Yes I would buy it again. Despite the odd quirk I still reckon this rig to be the best mobile I've used. 73 Brian G3OYU ... From: Alan McCurdy...
Before you buy, I'd suggest that you wait to see what materializes at Dayton. Also, don't forget DStar---ICOM feels they are going to blow away APRS with this...
Yeah, but how many practical purposes is this going to serve for the average tech-class ham? Most of these "new" features are applicable to technology that is...
PLUS - It will probably be another "DC to Light" radio that is prone to front end saturation (Intermod) and poor audio. I wish the manufacturers would get back...
Hi all, I recently came across a short note mentioning a firmware upgrade for the D700. However, it was very vague and said only that it provided a fix for...
Hey, thank ya'll for all the input on the radio purchase. Also, thanks for the input on other radios that are possibly coming out here in the near future....
Again, it's probably a very good idea to wait and see what materializes at Dayton. Yes, there are rumors that range from a firmware upgrade to the D700, all...
Hey Larry, When is the Dayton Show? Is there a web site? Alan ... __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Tax Center - forms,...
... Hi Alan, The answer to that problem is to never buy anything! <gr> I gave up worrying about the falling prices of gear long ago and simply enjoy what I...
Hi all, I'm a new ham and new owner of my D700. Absolutly loving the radio. But am mistified if I have a problem with the MUTE button. I read the manual to...
For some reason my D700A has stopped receiving packets. It is having no problem sending them, I can send an APRS packet (it shows up at FINDU.com), and...
... Hi Denis, Your email piqued my curiosity, so I checked my radio. My radio is set up with two speakers on Mode 1. At first, I found the same thing you did;...
... Chris, The only thing I can find in the manual is the setting for Group Code. It's menu 3-E. See p. 22 in the specialized comm. manual. I'm not too ...
I am having a strange problem with the PM Auto Store function. It will not "auto store" the current configutation when power is shut off. This even includes...
Dont forget that the digital craze that is going on is not compatable between vendors! The digital formats for current radio manufactures that are planning on...

Thanks for the response. I will play with that tonight and see if I get the same results as you did. I can always turn down the opposite side but the mute...
Just a thought, but have you tried a radio reset (little resessed button on front of radio) and clearing out everything then reload the settings from computer?...
Denis, Go ahead and add two external speakers! Even 2 cheap MFJ speakers defeat the poor audio quality of an otherwise fine radio! 73s Steve, KF6WAX-1...

I have to go with one external speaker. I'm going to mount it above my left shoulder where the seat belt runs through the top harness. I can't have another...
Who better to ask than those who own one? I'll tell you, if I didn't think it was a good radio, I wouldn't hesitate to tell you otherwise. I've owned things...
Yes, I tried all the possible resets, both software and hardware. I have determined, by swapping parts with a friends unit, that the problem is the radio...
