[ICOM] Icom and AM broadcast overload

Ed.
Considering you only tranferred to another operation position.
Did you change your ground system?
Ferrite beads will not solve your problem by the way.

Subject: [ICOM] Icom and AM broadcast overload


I recently transferred some of my station to another operating position. I 
am now having problems with AM broadcast overload up and down the HF bands. 
First my IC 706mkIIG and now my 746 pro are being overloaded. I don't live 
all that close to the AM transmitter. It's at least 3 -5 miles away. At 
first I thought this was due to my 706 having a connector problem but that 
has been fixed and my 746 is FB after getting it back from the radio doctor. 
I have tried Ferrite beads and may need to add some more and I will try to 
improve my grounding but other than this are there some more things to try?
