Hi Dave

 

I have a mk2G and once you?ve done the diode tx mod it goes to tx mode 0 to 30mhz, however RF out is minimal much below 250khz, as you get above 400khz it rapidly spools up to 25w or so max.  My 735 is a bit drifty but fine for WSPR, though the frequency over-reads by about 20hz or so.  The 706mk2g is spot on however.  Not sure about the mk2 or the mk1 and what they can do.

 

Cheers

 

Jim

I have an old IC735 which I have modified to give a good output from the transverter socket down to 136 (I removed a HPF) but the thing drifts horribly, no good for anything more than QRSS3. A 706 would be better. Which versions can be made to go into TX below 1.6MHz? I don't think a MkIIG can but can a MkII?

 

Dave.

Dear All,

 

Find an old Ic735 or better still a 706mk2g and open it up.  Rx is a bit dull but a datong vlf adaptor will do the trick too and you have a capable 137/500 transcieve kit

These days I 'm using the good old T-1154 on 502 kHz, but is drifting down below the 501 kHz (Our limit in the Netherlands ).

 

And an R1155?
