[Icom] IC-R9000

[Gary R]

The CRTs are being offered on Ebay for months now by a Canadian source
as well as an American seller as "...replacement CRT for Icom
781/R9000..." . Go to Ebay, search for Icom and look for the CRT
listings. You might also search on Ebay for "icom crt" and see what you
find. Don't quit though, they've been up there weekly but not
necessarily everyday..
