The IC7000 seems to be hotter than the 706.
The 700 heat sink is smaller and the fan of my 706 operated temporarily also 
during receive only, but the 7000 's fan does not.

> 2) at what temperature does the internal fan turn on?
There is a temperature display in the graphic mode.
I found it always in the blue region, and when transmitting, the fan operrated 
immediately.Also after transmitting a few minutes, the temp meter was not in 
the red area. After ending transmission, the fan operates a while.

> 3) is it possible to send Touch Tones from the mic keypad?
Nothing found in the manual.
Pressing he keypad numbers during transmit thanges the band (as for reveive)
That not a good solution !!
