[Dxbase] Icom connections

[Wes N7WS]

Thanks again, Joe.

I actually haven't completely decided on the ICOM.  A looong time ago I owned an 
IC211 multi-mode.  It was such a POS (they actually had solder bridges between 
IC pins to make up for missing traces) I gave it to a friend who also had one, 
so he could keep one running.  I used to say that it was a tribute to his 
character that even after taking the radio off my hands, we remained friends.  I 
swore back then I would never own another ICOM.  But times have changed (I hope).

Wes
