I have for sale an Icom 756 HF/6M radio that is in really good
 physical condition, with no lines on the screen.  This rig does dual receive, 100 watts out on each band, and has the band scope to show activity on the band. Now it does have the following things going on with it:

1. No box or manual, but does have the power cord.  The manual and service manual are both available on-line.  I can burn them onto a CD for you if you like.

2. It has the Icom HM7 hand mic instead of the stock HM36 mic.  This mic works with it, but doesn't have the up/down buttons on it.

3. The receive seems a bit low on it.  It receives ok, and I was
working plenty of stations on HF with it yesterday, it just seems that you have to turn the preamp on a little more than you do on most 756s.  Probably just needs a receive tweaking, but I don't have a signal generator here.  I worked a local on it today on 6m, and he was S9 on the 756 and about S9+20 on an Icom 706mKIIG.  Now I realize that it could be differences in S meters,  but he did sound a bit louder on the 706 as well.

I am asking $680 shipped in the US for it, payment by paypal only.
