Hi ken can you tell me how to test the pre amp....
i hadn't used this set for a few years and have recently got it out to sell.

other and tuned my AR5000 then tuned the IC-R7000 to the same frequency. and
the R7000 is spot on frequency...

i will test it and let you know. but i am 100% sure its all working 100%

Hi ken can you tell me how to test the pre amp....

Once you switch your radio to a frequency higher than 1 Ghz you should be
able to hear the relay switch in for the pre-amp.
One other ( and best way really ) way is if you have a signal generator that
goes above one Gig
is to use that and check the fundamental frequency of the generator above
one Gig.
You should get a good reading if all is OK and the preamp is working as it
should.

The only reason I asked this question in the first place is because of the
time period you say the radio had not been used for. The change-over relays
some times stick and need cleaning.

Good luck with the sale, cheers, Ken, G4KIR.

Hi Ken
when i enter a frequency higher than 1GHz yes you hear the
relay
click over when the 1GHz button is pressed...

All sounds fine to me then John.
Good luck with the auction.............cheers, Ken, G4KIR.
