[TVARC] Icom 7300 Problem

[Ed Palwick]

I am having problems with my new Icom 7300 (2/10/22) and are desperately seeking help from anyone who has any suggestions as to how to proceed. The 7300 sporadically loses all signals (all bands), leaving flat lined waterfall and noise. It may last for an hour, minutes or whatever. Sometimes the radio will not initially turn-on and other times it will go off during QSO’s. Antenna is a Chameleon Micro, 60’, EFHW with the balun in the attic and the wire laid on top of the shingles from East to West, RG8x leads from the attic to the shack. I also have an LDG AT-100ProII Autotuner. This arrangement works great having worked several European as well as domestic contacts. I tried connecting the radio directly to the antenna without the tuner to no avail. I also tried a Kenwood TS-450S in place of the 7300 and the same thing happens. Also switched coaxes, no help. Seems like an errant signal is coming in but what and from where? QTH is next to Savannah Center at Buena Vista and El Camino Real, Village of Santiago. If you think you can help, and believe me I need help, contact me directly and I will fill you in on other things that I tried. Email ascot369 at gmail.com <mailto:ascot369 at gmail.com> or phone/text 215.704.2828. Thank you in advance 73
