[ICOM] IC-756PRO RASCAL/Heil

[Larry Winslow]

Bob,

Don't know if you're interested but the CT-17 can 
be homebrewed for way less than the cost of a new 
one. I built mine back in the 90s for $13 using 
all new parts - I skipped the junk box as an 
experiment to see how much it really cost. I have 
the diagram which I can email if you wish.
