A very simple and inexpensive mobile mount for an icom 706mkiig radio

The simple interface resolves the aforementioned difficulties by providing automatic key and alc-line selection for hf, 6 and 2-meter amplifiers

Unfortunately, icom designers decided against installing a t/r transmit/receive control line output for interfacing an external power amplifier

This modification allows transmitter to transmit on whole frequency range, it is for IC-706 mk II g - European version

It appear that the caps c188 and c604 both are rated for 16 volts at 1000uf these are electric caps and as such have liquid in them which is corrosiv

The scg smartuner family is build to operate stand-alone, you only need to provide 12 vdc power to the coupler and when it sees rf input it starts matching your antenna to the feed line

This modification doesn't affect 2m rx in anyway, because 2m has its' own, thight front-end, that is used instead of the modified filter, when in 2m band. hf and 6m aren't affected either

Is a handy compilation of most of the mods and stuff I have developed or found on the web for the 706MkIIG

The latest version is the incredibly small icom ic-706 mark ii g which adds many new features and capabilities not found in the previous ic-706 and ic-706mkii versions

I have performed these modifications successfully, but i offer no guarantee or warranty for them. proceed at your own risk

The 706mkiig does not have a signal which directly drives an external amplifier

Goal was to develop a solid state PTT interface circuit

This simple and cost effective interface circuit is designed for use with any icom amateur radio equipment with civ interface

The ic-706 vox mode is selectable in 100ms time increments, from "0" to 1 second. the 100ms position is too slow for contest operation
