I spoke to Icom France (Country from where we first saw the ad) and
they confirmed that they expect to have more info shortly and that
the radio would see its days before the end of this semester.
By experience with the french market, it always takes longer than
expected but for the facts I have seen, I do believe there will
actually be one available this year.

Hi Ken,
Only time will tell. If the worst case comes to pass and the

no-show, I am sure there will be no hard feelings on our part!
Cheers for now, 73,

I remember hearing from my brother (a manager at Radio Shack at the
time) about 15 years ago Radio Shack was planning the release of a
new piece
of equipment (a Ham Rig or a computer, I can't remember).
They started one of these vapor-ware rumor-mills and monitored the
discussion. When it seemed as though everybody was "sure" what
features it
should have, the top execs said......"OK, build it like that..."
They sold a bunch of them! 'Cause they gave people what they
wanted.
Could it be that Icom is dong the same.....?
