Hi Lee,
Thanks for the info.
I have a IC7400 (same as 746pro).
Its 12 months old and no failures yet.
I am reluctant to modify mine due to warranty issues.
Also there is a display fault due to a transistor failure as well .
Has anyone had these problems with late model units ?
Cheers,
Lloyd VK4FP.

Hi

My IC-7400 had the display fault which was fixed by under warranty by Icom. It got it back in 7 days
