[Icom] IC-706MKIIG on PACTOR

Mon, 17 Jun 2002 15:37:16 -0400

I have used my Icom IC-706MkII with my KAM FSK without any
problem. I am now using it with AFSK into the PTC-IIe for
Pactor-I and -ii without any problem.

Are you using FSK? FSK is the designer's intended mode for
HF digital on
this radio. When I got mine a couple of years ago, there was
talk of it not
working properly on PACTOR. Turns out  _only_ guys trying to
use AFSK were
having T/R timing problems with it.

A www.google.com groups search with keywords [problem pactor
706] might
turn up more.
