Saving $4000 as compared to IC-7800, I'd also buy the
accessory monkey to spin/stop that gigantic knob.
Accessory chimp comes with a free Icom "Expanding your
World" tee-shirt and a box of Icom branded accessory
pampers.

It is rumored that Adam VA7OJ http://www.ab4oj.com/
raises and trains each one of these little fellows
personally - to operate the entire transceiver and to
optionally grab the beverage of the operator's choice
from a cooler upon a simple gesture.

To make full use of this accessory, be sure to order
the little fellow his own pro-set. 

The simmian comes pre-named and the first 10 were
named after VA7OJ's fine dog "0rion" which can be
admittedly confusing for owners of the Ten tec gear.
