[Icom] Does the new Icom Pro require

[Jerry Flanders]

Might be just a rumor then - if it was real, ICOM should have corrected it 
or acknowledged it by now. Anybody know the source of this?

There is no mention of a keying current typo in the Feb 2002 QST writeup of 
the PRO-II or the extended test report (I just looked).

OTOH - maybe ICOM doesn't acknowledge it just to avoid the hassle of fixing 
busted relays in out-of-warranty radios. But if ICOM has never mentioned 
it, how did we learn of it? Did somebody check the specs of the relay at 
the OEM site?
