[ICOM] PRO III QST review

[Tony Lord]

John,

I agree! The RADCOM, magazine of RSGB here in England had a full review in
their most recent monthly publication. I havent had time to read it yet but
understand there are many improvement over the Pro II. I am still happy with
my Pro II and see no reason to change it now.

I do like the fact that it will send RTTY, if only
memories.  That would work in a RTTY contest.  I am
hoping that the PROIV will allow you to plug in a
keyboard and send RTTY, as you can with the 7800.  

Also, when did the PROIII come out?  This seems to be
one of the fastest product reviews following the
release of a rig.
