> IC746PRO   (not under discussion)   $1700 heavily disocunted

IC756PRO (also under discussion) $1899 from AES
K2/100 with options to make it comparable to the others $1582

I'm certainly not trying to down the K2 - it's a great rig. I just
think we need to compare "apples to apples" as far as possible. Of
course for many, the psyological impact of using a rig you built
yourself is worth more than the dollars.
