[ICOM] New Pro III - Hold On Guys!

[William Lambing]

Adam, thank you for adding some sanity to this thread.  Amazing, people chop 
any brand radio, for their own gratification.  I am sorry, but Adam has 
pretty well hit it on the head.  Technology is changing very fast these 
days.  If, for sake of comparison, look at the 75S-1 and 75S-3. Compare 
them, in the same time cycle to the 756, Pro, Pro II and the forthcoming Pro 
III.

Whether or not it is Brand "I", "K" or "Y", me thinks you will find the 
changes amount to more than the changes between the Collins S-1 and Collins 
S-3, given the same time frame.

The changes in technology today, compared to just a year ago ... well, there 
is no comparison.  Noise floor, 3rd order ... so on and so on ... changes 
happen for a reason.  I would rather see advancement in the technology than 
see them stagnate with the same radio for 10 years with nothing..!
