ICOM IC-V-8000 Backlight Brightness?
Posted: Fri Sep 12, 2008 7:04 am
I just recently picked up an Icom V-8000. The first thing that I noticed is that the backlit buttons on both the radio and the mic aren't very bright. They aren't even bright enough to read what is on them. I was wondering if this is common with this radio? I bought this radio new, but the original box was torn, and there wasn't any plastic covering over the display, so I think I got a floor model or something. Anyway, just wondering. I think I might send this back. Thanks, Pat N8QBY
