[Icom] Icom R75 info needed

[Rick Robinson]

I need some sites and lists to check out for general use and improvement
mods to the R75 .I have heard that the sync. det. is a problem but I just
recently read that that is a big misunderstanding because people look at the
AM reception like other radios detector schemes and  the Icom is different
in its AM detection. I guess I'm more interested in the AGC mod and any
other things like filter pairs and how well they work ,etc. I think I read
somewhere where Kiwa moved . Is this correct ? Any info? FYI -- RandL
electronics sold them today for $439.95 plus shipping during their customer
appreciation day sale. The web site lists the sale prices good through
12-15-2002. It lists $499.95 and includes a $60 gift card but they took the
money off my purchase price. Thanks in advance for info on sites and
personal experiences and please reply off the list if you feel it is only
valuable info for me. Rick  K8DXN
