[Icom] Icom , what's the real 2720 story?

[Matt Erickson]

Just who do you guys think you are?

The ham radio market is a tiny, repeat, tiny fraction of ICOM's over all 
market. The lion's share of radio sales world-wide are commercial/business 
and government/military, it is these markets that dictate where and when 
radio gear is developed, and how much R&D money is invested in that gear.
NOT HAMS!
All ham radio sales could stop today, and ICOM would continue, sustained 
solely by those "non-ham" sales.

Nobody likes a bunch of whiny belly-askers.
