Yeah, fat chance!  But, consider yourself lucky if a bad LCD is all you have
experienced. There are a thousand or so hams out there who bought the
original IC PW1 ( a great amp) with an equally great price, who got nothing
from ICOM when it decided that there was something not quite right about the
design of same and modified it in early production. When many of us
requested the mod free, or replacement, we got no tea and certainly no
sympathy.
