About TS (Tuning Step) option for a Function button:
If you choose this option, pressing the button is the same as touching the khz digit on the display. It will switch the main tuning knob from normal tuning to "step" tuning. It will tune in whatever step size you have programmed for the mode you are in. If you press it again, it turns step tuning off.
If you press and hold the button, it will bring up the step size options on the display.

I watched your video at 10am, then drove to my local HRO in Sac and had my HM151 15 minutes later.
I guess I should ask HRO for a commission 😉 I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I hope you're enjoying the mic.
Thanks Tom another great video! I ordered the HM-151 from HRO and had it dropped shipped directly to Bob Nagy AB5N for his modification. He did the mod and shipped it out to me in no time. I'm very pleased with this mic and getting great signal reports.
thanks for the vid tom at last my mic is working properly,and thanks for the set of videos on the 7300 all very helpful i have watched them all
Nice, I did not know this was an option. I have been using my 7100 as a base station, I need more of them for my vehicles.
October 2023 on eBay new for $60.
Nice Video, thanks
Thanks, Tom great job!
Waiting on mine. Stuck in NYC somewhere.
Thanks Tom, you encouraged (?) me to buy oneand now I know why I did...
The switch on the side of the HM-198 is to disable the frequency up and down buttons on the top. It has nothing to do with audio response.
Hi. Thanks for the correction. Yeah, a bit of brain fade on my part. I should have looked it up before doing the video. I was remembering a different mic on a different rig that does have a switch for changing the audio tone. I’ll add a correction in the description for the video.
Well you talked me into getting one, should arrive this week from DXE. Good price as well.
Thanks for the review. 73 N2IMB
Hi Tom , I built a GPS FOR MY 7100 IT COST ABOUT 20 TO 25 DOLLARS
how'd you do that?
Are you going to tell us?
The switch only locks the up/down buttons.
How do you turn back-light of the microphone on and off - Thanks
I have done the AB5N mod on my HM-151 but have gone back to the original as I was getting poor audio reports with the upgrade. I bought a second mic so I could easily compare them and consensus was that the stock mic sounded better.
Hi Andrew. Thanks for the information. That’s good to know. I’m going to hold off on any changes to my mic, at least until I see more reviews or reports.
Same as Andrew. I had reports of clipping which couldn't be resolved. Stock mic or Heil headset for me.
Hi Tom can you do a video on how to use the audio recorder to record my own CQ CALLS to transmit.
Hi Coy. In my reply to your other comment, I thought you were talking about recording the entire QSO. To record outgoing calls, check out these:
ruclips.net/video/uDkMWTeMn1U/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/oR2F6ueFi4g/видео.html
These videos are on the 7300, but the voice record functions are exactly the same on the 7100.
Have you found a way to use the dtmf as dtmf?
The band stacking is neat but not what I need.
Hi. I haven't had a need to send DTMF tones with my 7100, but I had always just assumed that the number buttons on the HM-151 would send tones if you pressed them while transmitting (like every other keypad mic that I've owned). I just went to my radio and confirmed that they don't. As far as I can find, there is no setting to make this happen.
I did find an article about a DTMF keypad that retrofits on the back side of the HM-151 from Midian Electronics. Here is the URL for an installation manual: www.pc5e.nl/downloads/ic7000/Mods/ICOM-IC7000-HM-151-DTMF%20Mod.pdf
After checking Midian's website, it looks like the product may no longer be available. If you really need this capability, you might try calling them to see if they have any old stock.
@HamRadioA2Z yeah I just did uploaded a video with the 151, 207 & a 207s.
All 3 only did the "band stacking", I think that's what it is called.
Anyways thanks for the link.
For a mobile radio dimming isn't in any quick menu
Correct. That is one of the frustrations (for me at least) with the 7100. I find it difficult to read the display during the day unless the backlight is turned up. Then, at night the backlight is WAY too bright. I am usually in the settings menu twice a day turning the display brightness up and down. I have an idea for a project that may help this. Stay tuned…. de Tom WA2IVD
@@HamRadioA2Z I've had the radio for three years and that's the only thing that really bugs the heck out of me.
Great video and production value. Thanks for taking the time to share. 73 de w6mgv
