[ICOM] 756 Tested

[John Geiger]

Based on actual on-the-air use, the receiver is not as bad as the figures
indicate.  It is certain better than the receiver on the 706MKIIG ( you
would have to look hard to find a receiver worse than a MKIIG) although his
figures put the MKIIG ahead.  The 756 is probably not as good as the 775,
but it certain is a very good HF performer.
