Default IC-706 Tune Module

Several years ago there was a external plugin module marketed for the 706
series radios that provided a 10 watt carrier output from the radio. I have not
seen them advertised lately and was wondering if they are still available since
I'm planning on getting a new 706mk2G. Any info appreciated.

wd4awo sells them on EBay frequently for $10 + shipping. Search on his
callsign as user name or search for "icom tuner control"

Not necessary for the 2g. It provides it's own tune signal.

Ken-

I purchased one recently from Amateur Electronic Supply for around $20-$25.
They are made by another company, but listed under the IC-706 in their catalog
price list.

I purchased it just "to have", as I normally use the AT-180 tuner. As I
understand it, its purpose is to be able to use a non-Icom tuner.

That little module fakes a tuner being connected so the 706 series
outputs the 10 watt signal into something like a manual tuner.

The 706MKIIG will not go into tune mode without a tuner attached. Nor
will the 706MKII or the original 706.
