[ICOM] Anyone rcvd an IC-7000 yet?

[Adam Farson]

Hi John,

My IC-7000 evaluation report should address your questions.

http://www.qsl.net/ab4oj/icom/ic7000/ic7000_trip.pdf  (also in the Files
section of the IC-7000 Yahoo! Group).

Cheers for now, 73,
Adam VA7OJ/AB4OJ

Here are a couple of questions I have about the 7000:

1. Is the band scope real time, or does the audio mute during a sweep (like
on the 746)?

2. What is the receiver like?  Hopefully much better than the 706MKIIG.
