R7000.14 Bulletin #: 35187-001 Subject: Audio becomes distorted (clipped) when the radio is warm. The period of time required for this problem to become evident varies depending on the ambient temperature. This problem may not be evi- dent at low audio levels. Procedure Write to ICOM's customer service department for a copy of this service bulletin. Bulletin #: 35887-003 Subject: The remote relay sometimes stays energized after a signal is no longer present. The radio must be turned off and back on to clear this situation before the modification. Procedure 1. Remove the covers from the radio and remove the main circuit board on the side of the radio. 2. Cut the trace between the base of Q5 and R106 on the foil side of the main board. 3. Install a RD6A diode (this part is critical and must be ob- tained from ICOM) with its cathode toward R106 across the cut in the trace. 4. Reinstall the board and insure mechanical clearance of the new diode. 5. Verify proper operation of the recorder function. CONTINUED IN R7000.15
