IC-7000 Mods
IC-7000 TV Enable Reception
IC-7000 Modifications
This information is for educational purposes ONLY This is a Reversible modification.
Do NOT use this modification if you are using this unit mobile. It is against the law in most jurisdictions to
have TV reception where the driver may see the screen.
DO use this as a BASE MODIFICATION ONLY.
TV Reception:
1. Remove the top cover of the unit. (There are only 8 screws holding the cover in place, do NOT remove the
four screws surrounding the speaker.)
2. Gently unplug the speaker wire and set the top to the side.
3. Gently lift the "Tuner Control Socket" and lift out of the way.
4. Remove DSP unit by unscrewing two silver screws holding it down. (The silver box on the top of the radio
under the cover, with copper taped sides) One of the screws was under the tuner socket control wires. Pull the
unit straight up.
5. Almost directly in the middle towards the front of where the DSP plugs is a Solder jumper. It is the ONLY
solder jumper on the board.
6. Remove that jumper with wick or sucker. (DO NOT REMOVE DIODES AS IN OTHER DIRECTIONS.)
7. Reassemble in reverse order.
8. With a new unit it enable reception automatically. (If you have already placed anything in memory
anywhere, do a CPU reset. BAND UP and BAND DOWN while turning the unit on.)
9. To make the TV work just hold the SET (AF control.) momentarily. Switch off the same manner.)
10. To change channels just rotate the tuning knob. The channels are built in memorized.

IC-7000 (IC 7000 IC7000) TVRO & MARS (US version)
1. Remove CPU/DSP unit by unscrewing three silver screws holding it down (the silver box on the top of
the radio with copper taped sides) and pull up.
2. Locate four shift registers and bank of diodes - shift registers are 4094's. There are two next to each
other and then a couple more. We'll call the two stacked the "left" ones
3. The "middle" shift register if looking from the front of the radio is the target.
4. Locate bank of SMT diodes (silver with "K" on top on one side) in front of the target shift register.
They are in two columns, "left" and "right"
5. Unsolder one side of the second diode from the front on the left and lift up one side (or remove, slip to
the side, whatever turns you on)
MARS:
OK - here's an out-of-band mod that does TX from 0-54, 118-173, 400-470.
1. Remove CPU/DSP unit by unscrewing three silver screws holding it down (the silver box on the top of
the radio with copper taped sides) and pull up.

Beep”, on the other hand, does not function.

6. Unsolder one side of the second diode from the front on the left and lift up one side (or remove, slip
to the side, whatever you are comfortable with.)
Please observe local traffic laws concerning use of a TV set in a vehicle!
