[Icom] RE: Delta-100H Service Manual

Wed, 22 May 2002 10:24:28 -0400

Still looking, Ray, for the service manual for the Delta-100H.
	I'm also hoping to find out about the MARS/CAP (out-of-band) TX mods for
this rig. There is nothing shown on the usual "mods" web sites for the
Delta100H.
	It's a great little radio, but REALLY tough to find parts, accessories or
info for! We Delta owners should start a support group!

G'day William  (  Bill ?  )

I too have a Delta100, and after a few early problems - RF feedback - fixed
under warranty with instant success - think it was getting into the mic
lead  or something, worst on 70 cm,  clicking noise in TX  audio - all
fixed and I actually like the true tri-band nature of the rig.  The TX
audio is a bit unique I am told.  The rig has functioned flawlessly for
years in my Ford S/wagon, the fan cycling has a mod I was told, rather than
on-off, a  slow increase in speed as required - much quieter - never seen
any details of this though.

Did you get a copy of the service manual at  all ?   If so from where and
how much did it cost you?

ICOM Australia don't have any copies for sale and only three Delta100 units
were ever sold in Australia I am told, although I know of others purchased
on overseas visits Zone20 in Japan  etc

Anyway, just saying hello, and would like to hear from you and what you
think of the rig etc
