[Icom] 765 Trimmer Caps

Wed, 16 Oct 2002 20:11:28 -0700

Hi Larry,

As far as I am aware, Icom changed over to ceramic trimmers around S/N 25XX.
Mine (which I sold in 1992) had ceramic trimmers.

My 765 has a serial number of 27xx & is 10 years old. I've never had any
troubles with the trimmer caps. Maybe I'm just lucky or ...
