DSP filters not crystal filters. With dual passband tuning you can
get just about any passband and center frequency in 50Hz and 100Hz
steps respectively as long as it remains below the basic bandwidth
setting for the filter, which is also variable in principle.

It does not run on batteries at this time. But that is because it
does not run at all at this time. Apparently it is still in design
not production.

I don't really understand the purpose of this group at this point if it is
not to speculate, such as you did on the eventual model number.

I know Howard from nattering with him in email on the side. "I'd be

gentleman. The "feeding frenzy" seems to strike him differently than
me. I find it mostly amusing. I must say ICOM has built up some very
nice customer loyalty. For all that I may cavil about the faults in
my ProII I am quite pleased with it. (I just wish it was incrementally
better in a few places that should not have cost anything to implement.
One gripe probably cost the money of writing some dozen EXTRA lines of
code in the DSP ROM. {^_-} The RF engineer in me is very fussy about

do suspect that getting a life is a good idea, though. Holding

DSP filters not crystal filters. With dual passband tuning you can
get just about any passband and center frequency in 50Hz and 100Hz
steps respectively as long as it remains below the basic bandwidth
setting for the filter, which is also variable in principle.

It does not run on batteries at this time. But that is because it
does not run at all at this time. Apparently it is still in design
not production.

Thanks for the support Joanne and Jerry....

My house made the national news tonite... at least the outlets of my new
drain pipes where I am pumping torrents of water from the mountain did.. and
so did the huge 100'+ cranes holding up the houses below me....Since the
cranes are already here, I wonder if I could talk them into letting me
borrow the cranes for a few minutes and turn them 180 degrees to install my
MonstIR...Now that the torrential rains seem to be subsiding, I am sure
those houses won't move that much further down the mountain while we install
antennas.....

My XYL says I have a one track mind.. while the whole mountain around us
seems to be sliding down into the sea, all I can think about is how to get
the MonstIR on top of my 85' tower...and the one positive note is now that
those two houses are further down the mountain my propagation to the
SouthWest is much less obstructed....

As I said previously I put an IC-7000? on order at HRO today just for the
fun of it... and partially to stoke the 'guy thing' envy of those who
consider themselve to be "gentlemen"..

Don't know what it is going to cost, don't know what it is, but it should be
fun to have the first one.. what ever it is....

While some of the technical speculation on this reflector makes sense and
may even be read by Icom, a lot of the speculation on the price point is
inane to say the least...

I guess the part I find the most difficult is the continual questions about
the unit when all the information that anyone has is the brief 1 page
description in the French Magazine.. that's all the information there is
right now.. PERIOD

So why bother asking questions about the unit.. when nobody knows anymore
than you do?

Reminds me a lot about Wall Street, where everyone asks everyone else about
the latest rumor... when in fact no one you ask knows anything...and those
who actually might know something are never going to tell you...

Any ham that would build a tower... for a HUGE new SteppIR MONSTIR yagi

beam...way up on top of a

hill...while homes all around are sliding down with mudflows... in the

middle of non-stop

record-breaking torrential rainstorms...can't be ALL bad 8^)
GO - HOWARD!!

I'm kinda enjoying all this hoopla about the (so far) phantom IC-7000!!

with all the very best, 73.... Jerry K3BZ

I know Howard from nattering with him in email on the side. "I'd be
willing to introduce him to my mother," so to speak. He seems like a
gentleman. The "feeding frenzy" seems to strike him differently than
me. I find it mostly amusing. I must say ICOM has built up some very
nice customer loyalty. For all that I may cavil about the faults in
my ProII I am quite pleased with it. (I just wish it was incrementally
better in a few places that should not have cost anything to implement.
One gripe probably cost the money of writing some dozen EXTRA lines of
code in the DSP ROM. {^_-} The RF engineer in me is very fussy about
this sort of thing.)

{^_^} Anyway, W6MKU is not offended. And I hope others are not. I
do suspect that getting a life is a good idea, though. Holding
your breath until this 7000 puppy is available could be fatal.

This group is all Gentlemen here.

Your remarks are out of line. You should be banned. Moderator, please
take notice and warn this guy or erase him from here.

configurations, etc. etc. etc..

Get a Life Folks.. IT DOES NOT EXIST YET..Stop speculating... you are
only wasting bandwidth...

Wait until it is offically announced in Japan (likely)... or Dayton
(less likely)

I am still betting it wll have a number other that IC-7000

FYI - Like I did for the Pro3 and the SteppIR MonstIR, I am going to
HRO tomorrow and put in an order for one

.. just so I can say I got the first one....(it's a guy thing again)
.... whatever it turns out to be!

When the first IC-7000 (or 700 or whatever) is actually delivered, let me

know 8^)
