[Icom] icom base rig

Fri, 25 Jul 2003 23:45:46 -0400

Is the IC-7400 different than the IC-746?  If so, how, does the 7400 not
have FM?

There must be some advantage to the 7400, or else Diamond wouldn't dig for
diamonds...

Sorry - I had to do that pun!

If you are not going to be using 2M FM but rather, SSB the IC 7400 is a
great choice.  That is the European version of the 746 PRO.

It is a great weak signal low VHF rig.

i am looking for an all mode HF/6/2 base rig.  many have suggested the
706mkIIG
and for the money it seems like a great deal - but i'm not going to be using
it
as a mobile rig.  i was thinking about getting a used 746 since it is geared
more toward a base rig application plus it has a built in tuner.

anyone care to offer some thoughts on these radios?
