My local Icom agent rang Icom Hong Kong yesterday who told him that the
IC-7800 uses synchronous AM receive automatically. You can't engage or
disengage it.
They also told him that the 7800 is the only Icom radio to incorporate
synchronous AM. I find it hard to believe that the 7700 doesn't feature it
though considering it's new.
