Icom ic7000 SDR modification

Use your ic7000 transceiver as an SDR front end
I've made this modification 4-5 years ago
It uses a small sample of the last intermediate frequency of the ic7000 (16,150 KHz) directly to PC sound card input
It works great with many SDR softwares like PowerSDR, Winrad and others (only receive)
It also provides a small improvement on the ic7000 receiving performance

Μπορείς να κάνεις αποδιαμόρφωση μέσω της κάρτας ήχου και όποιου προγράμματος θέλεις. Σε μερικές περιπτώσεις με λίγο καλύτερες επιδόσεις από το 7000 μόνο του.

Wrong tap location and the voltage divider is not needed and actually has a huge drop in sensitivity is way too much. The tap should be at the 1st IF, not the third. An RF tap and using a SDR allows a complete spectrum display of the radio. I have both in one of my 7000's. The IF tap is good for about 50KC on the band you are on but the second radio "SDR" allows to receive everything and see the entire PAN of the band or even other bands at the same time.
