I find it difficult to read a particular station on my Icom 718 HF Base Transceiver.

IS this a frequency issue? A modulation issue? You dont have enough information on the problem. The radio receives other signals fine? What is the frequency and mode?

Hallo iam using a icom 718 on 28mhz up to 14mhz have a problem of a high swr reading but the antenna is fine then power drop away

Check the feedline to the antenna, and the antenna itself. High SWR means that power is being reflected back from the antenna. A good discussion of SWR may be found here: http://www.hamuniverse.com/wc7iswr.html If you antenna is designed for 10M and your are trying to transmit 20M on it, there will be a significant mis-match. You may want to look at installing a better broadband antenna, such as an OCFD that will operate better on multiple bands.

ICOM IC-A24 VHF Air band handheld transceiver. It works great except the display is blank. Any suggestions?

There is normally an electrolytic capacitor on the back of the display that regulates voltage for brightness. Sometimes thy are easy to replace. Or give it to a radio engineer, or return it to Icom for repair. They would likely just replace the display module and board. Someone else reports low contrast. https://forums.radioreference.com/threads/ic-a24-screen-contrast.321716/ https://www.google.com/search?q=ICOM+IC-a24+blank+display ..

Why is my icom ic-718 hf radio stuck in tx mode?

It can be a few things but first try resetting your CPU, while your transceiver is off, hold down the UP & DOWN buttons simultaneously then turn the transceiver back on, now it should be reset to the factory default settings

ICOM IC-R6 is scanning very slow. 1 frequency in 2 second, not 100 frequencies in 1 second. Where is problem ? How to change speed of scanning in IC_R6 ?

The Fix Programming via CS-R6 with Windows 10 made the problem. Scanning was very slow. The CS-R6 program through Windows 10 made problems with the scanning speed - it became very slow, one frequency in 2 seconds instead of 100 frequencies in one second. Through programming CS-R6 on Windows 7, the scanning speed returned to the corresponding one in the ICOM instructions - 100 frequencies per second

I finds very difficult to read a particular station in my icom 718

Hi, please move the radio away from it's current position to attempt to find alternative position where it's frequency will be transmitted clearly as intended. Also, please keep away from any microwaves or speakers so as not to cause any interference. Thank you.

Model 718. Why is CW mode kaput?

There are a few possible reasons why your radio might not be transmitting in CW mode. One possibility is that the keyer chip has gone bad. Another possibility is that there is a problem with the power supply. If you have a multimeter, you can check the voltages to see if they are within specification. Finally, it's also possible that there is something wrong with the antenna connection. Make sure that everything is securely connected and that there are no loose wires. I hope this helps!

Why won't my Icom AT-180 automatic antenna tuner tune at 21 or 18 mHz? Won't settle down and stop at low SWR.

Hi om sounds like you may have a break or something making that ant go haywire, have you checked all the line to see if there may be connection problem.another thing could you try the ant direct with a matcher inbetween to eliminate the auto tuner from circiut. This would narrow the fault down, have fun

ICOM A210 aircraft radio transmits but is not recieving

The RX light should light up when receiving a signal. It may be your squelch setting is too high. Push the VOL knob until it enters the squelch setting, then set the squelch so it just cancels noise. If still not working you could have a wire broken in connector from headset that plugs into the radio.

My icom 706mk2g was working fine vhf/uhf rptrs, now no xmt or rcv no power output any mode ssb/cw as well as fm) no rcv tho ht can hear rptrs fine. tried 2 antennas and both work on other xcvrs. HF ok

You need to be a very good technical person with electronics to work on these. The issue is most likely a PLL board issue. You need to be able to troubleshoot to the component level. The service manual appears to be https://www.manualslib.com/manual/738448/Icom-Ic-706mkiig.html
