The article "Icom IC7300 RTC Fix" details the meticulous repair of an Icom IC-7300's faulty real-time clock (RTC). The author and a friend, Nacho, discovered the RTC was gaining an unacceptable 11 seconds per day. Investigations revealed the Seiko Epson RX8803LC RTC was far outside its specified stability. Despite replacing the RTC and a burned pullup resistor, the transceiver still malfunctioned, leading to the replacement of the processor. Post-repair, the clock's accuracy improved significantly, now gaining only 1.4 seconds per month. This narrative underscores the complexities of electronic repairs and the satisfaction of resolving intricate issues.
