[ICOM] Need Advice About IC-7800 (To buy or not to buy)

[Jerry Keller]

Gee, Ron, where did I criticize?  Did I strike a nerve or something? If so, it wasn't my intention. I suspect that those who can afford the IC-7800 probably don't need to wonder if they are worth the money. I was merely offering another point of view.

My 756ProII is a really great radio, and when I look at the 7800 perf specs, they're better... but not that much better. The 7800 offers TWO complete radios in one box, not a whole lot different than TWO 756ProII's offer in two separate boxes. But again, this is just my 2 cents, your mileage may vary, especially in your Rolls.

73,  Jerry K3BZ

  Jerry, then GO for it. Just what everybody needs, 2 PRO III.... Talk about 
  "no brains".......

  I have bought all the new ICOMs in Japan and love 'em. I guess if you ain't 
  got the $, it easy to criticize those who do!
