I have owned an IC970H for years.  I like it because it gives all the
necessary operation feasibility.  It is a good rig but I do not know why it
is so expensive.  I keep it because I now treat it as an antique on my
shack.  With advancement in electronic technology, I believe newer rig such
as IC910H, which is at a very reasonable price, should be at comparable
performance.

As mentioned in other messages, I start to worry about spare parts of the
rig in case the rig gone south because ICOM will not have much parts left.

Would appreciate feedback.  Also, what about the Icom IC-821H?  How does it
stack up?
