The ICOM 7000 cord is different.

I won't even work on the 706.

  I've never seen an icom that didn't take the same one as the kenwoods, not 
  the 480 though, and alinco makes one too like that. Unless Icom has a radio 
  none of us know about, that can't be an icom cable, unless maybe the 7000 
  uses a different plug? I didn't think so, but I know for fact all the other 
  current models use the same 6 pin connector that Kenwood uses excluding the 
  480 and the alinco dx70 has.
