[Icom] volatile ram

Mon, 20 May 2002 13:42:08 -0600

One probably wants to add the IC-750 to the list as it seems to be an
exact copy of the 751.
I bought one in 1982 while stationed in Japan.
I believe it was made for domestic sale -vs- the 751 for export.
When I asked for schematics and ops manual in English ICOM sent me 751
data.

I wonder if they made an IC-750A ?
