[Icom] Icom parts support

Tim you made my day! I thought I would have to go to "radio rehab" but now I
see I'm not nearly as bad as others! 10-781's & 4-765's----you need help
more than me. We were joking the other night on 10 meters about starting a
radio anonymous meeting that would start out like "Hi, I'm Rick, and I can't
pass up a good deal."  You must have quite a large shack. My 2 cents! 73,
Rick.
