Hi Best (or should I call you MKM or mab?)

Actually, my good friend Matt KK5DR and I claim bragging rights for predicting a radio quite similar to the IC-756Pro3 as far back as mid-2003. We even came up with a hypothetical "precursor" to the IC-7800 which was not to far off the actual product. Cheers for now, 73, Adam VA7OJ/AB4OJ -----Original Message-----

I think just few people at retail level know about it...not a buddy type at HRO. I think senior level management or such will know. We just wait and see. The 706 is an old but good radio. I got mine from the first shipment back in the 90s. It is just time for a replacement. Furthermore, looking at the R&D of Icom, they are done with the ultimate rig, the 7800, they are done with the replacement for the 756pro series, one should ask what they were designing next and that will be a mobile radio to replace the 706mk2g. Also, keep in mind that nobody saw the Pro3 coming....the pro2 is still on sale. So anything is possible. -best On Feb 28, 2005, at 5:55 PM, Marty wrote:.
