Re: Do our comments affect the design of the IC7000 ?
Actually, I do not want a tuner inside the 7000 either. Rather, I was talking about a proposed AH-5 which would be an AH-4 replacement. These tuners are external, long wire tuners.

Re: Do our comments affect the design of the IC7000 ?
All these wish lists sound more like "7800 Mk II G" rather than 7000.
Allowing bandscope data to feed over the Ethernet remote control

Re: Do our comments affect the design of the IC7000 ?
Just a thought - the USB interface concept is "nice". But it is
horridly short range. There is something to be said for the ability
to have the radio on a somewhat longer tether than USB

Re: 70mhz available on the 7000?
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.

Re: 70mhz available on the 7000?
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

Re: 70mhz available on the 7000?
For what it's worth (not much in my opinion) I was just reading the mail and
heard a ham say he called his buddy at HRO today to ask if the price of the

I would not call this information "rumors" anymore. The radio is real

Re: Do our comments affect the design of the IC7000 ?
Since many guys have already placed their wishes for the IC-7000 (or
probably for MKII or later), I will add mine below:
