[ICOM] Such a Deal

[JerryM]

I think the name rank and serial number (and phone numbers) of your
insurance company should be splashed over every reflector and website you
can think of. Inquiring minds will want to know. THEN, as someone else has
already suggested, it is time for talking to nasty greedy lawyer guys and
the state insurance people.

And we would all like to know where to get this kind of gear for 400.00$?
