Jerry,

	I picked up a ProII for $2399 from AES on Saturday morning of the Dayton
Hamfest. I expected a good price after seeing/hearing what Gigaparts was
offering over the phone ($2735, but was amazed at the deep discount. I'm
glad I waited! I was only in the area for the day and it made the price of
the admission worthwhile.

	Now I just need to get my antennas back up.

Can anybody confirm the PRO-II was selling at Dayton for $2399? I saw two
reports of this, but it might have just been a rumor. Anybody here actually
see one there at that price? NO? - what was best price?

Also - at the Atlanta hamfest yesterday, I saw the PRO-II at $2675 from one
of the only TWO Icom dealers I saw there. The other dealer hadn't posted
his prices and there were too many people there to stand in line to ask.
There was no "factory" rep from any of the big mfrs. Disappointing.
