[Icom] Carrying Cases for the ICOM 746 PRO and the 910H

[Dana Hoggatt]

The case I built is more along the lines of a 1600,
because it has space for power cords, mic, etc...
At the time I built it, the 1600 was going for about
$300 + shipping.  So maybe I should have said eight
or nine times instead of ten.  I'm very glad to see
that the prices have fallen.  Sorry for the confusion
I may have caused.
