Hi Karl,

similar problems, turn the GPS on – key up and boosh no display.
Ernie has spoken to the men in black at icom uk and we have a few to go back for the ferrite map and a tap?
Lee has a big box waiting and a fed ex van arranged!
Lets hope they are as speedy as they were with ZPYs.

Hi guys different issue here but i treated my self to a gps mic over xmas and i got rf feedback and packet loss through the radio and mic, this only happened when the gps was switched on, naturally i thought it was the mic but when tried in a friends radio it was perfect, off to icom, result, and a known issue, a ferrite matt was put over the cpu, it is now perfect……..

I can vouch for that. He turned it on and by magic it just appeared upside down. I’m sure Icom will sort it out. That’s why we only buy and use Icom only for our D-STAR operations right?

The chair and the radio indeed Mr G0URG.

Spoken to the local emporium and he says “I’ll send it down to Icom if you like for it turning round”.

Can’t believe that I was speaking to ZipPY (remembered it) about his problems with the 92 last week and then I go get on the same.
Better break out another box Ernie this one is going back to base.

Boo Hoo !

I got one did the same tricks apart from the upside down screen it kept going blank. Good news is icom are aware and there is a fix but it needs to go back to supplier take it back from whence it came from and it should be sent back to get sorted mine was back with me after about a week

The problem is the space between the chair and radio ……
