[Icom] New IC-706MIIG

[Mark]

Well, Mike .. do you own one?  Have you installed/compared?  Just wonder
where you get your opinion ???   Do you own/run an AH4?  Or, more Germaine,
an AH2-b?  BTW .. I only have an IC-746 and an IC-736, but going to get the
latest greatest IC-706 in next couple of months, my 746 will work mobile in
the meantime .. or, my TS-130s, or Atlas 210X, or TS-830S, or .. ???   Enjoy
my nostalgia rigs.   IC-746 heading that direction .. HI HI ..  73 --- Mark
.. 6DX
