[ICOM] Pro II with low serial number

Hi Joe,
A friend of mine bought an early 756Pro2 (S/N 1013) in 2001. It worked
flawlessly during the 3 years he owned it. I helped him sell the radio late
last year, and as far as I know it is still working fine.
The reported abnormal failure rate was actually in the 746Pro, not the
756Pro2. Unlike the case of the original IC-756, neither the 756Pro nor the
Pro2 underwent major rev. level upgrades at the transition from 1XXX to 2XXX
serial numbers.
Cheers for now, 73,

Subject: [ICOM] Pro II with low serial number
I have a good friend contemplating the purchase of a Pro II with a
serial number of 13XX. I think I have read in the past of problems
with some Pro II's with serial numbers below 2000 regarding an
overheating component causing premature failure. Has anyone had any
significant problems with Pro II's with serial numbers below 2000? Is
there any reason to stay away from Pro II's with serial numbers below
2000? Thanks for any input.
