The v7 works great on the aircraft band.  I live near Washington DC and
there's lots of stuff to listen to here.   One trick you can use to find =
the
freqs in your area is to do a 1 megaherts scan of the 121 frequencies.  =
This
will let you listen to the national emergency freq of 121.5, the popular =
CAP
freq of 121.6 and the most popular ground freqs of 121.7, 121.8, annd =
121.9
Mhz.  Of course to hear the ground freqs you need to be close to the
airport, but listening to these will help you find the tower freqs and =
all
the other freqs.  Sometimes it is interesting to listen to the popular
chit-chat frequency of 123.45.

Good listening - Ken -N5SWR

Hi guys,

Thanks for the info.  It worked of course.  Did anyone ever try using =
the Am

mode on this rig?  If so, how well does it work?

    Ron:

I did this once, by mistake, so don't despair!

All you need to do is press the "center" button part of the tuning knob, =
and
miraculously, the radio  will go back into FM mode.  I was just about =
ready
to send my TMV7A to Kenwood for servicing, and this fixed the problem.  =
How
I figured it out, I don't remember, but this should solve your problem.

Let me know if it does.
