[ICOM] PRO vs PRO2

[Jan Robbins]

It is difficult to imagine why anyone would want to purchase a Pro, 
ProII or ProIII when you can have an IC-775 these days at almost the 
same price. Why would you spend money on a radio with a pretty display 
and terribly weak receiver, such as all the "pro's" have, when for just 
about the same money you can have a 775 with a receiver second only to 
the  very  best (Orion and Yaesu FT-9000) for almost exactly the same 
price.  If you have compared the Pro's with the 775 face to face on your 
operating desk, you'd NEVER buy a "Pro". Or so it seems to one who has 
done that test, and therefore has only 775's in his arsenal.  Vy 73 to 
all!  Jan
