[ICOM] Great receiver!

I just got an Icom T81A in today with a pre-2000 SN,
so does the wideband receive.  I have had some later
models, and missed being able to hear TV audio, among
other things.

This is the best receiver I have ever seen on an HT! 
We have a TV channel 7 here, but for some reason the
audio has been difficult or impossible to pick up. 
Most have it below the squelch level.  A VX2R I just
sold picked it up in and out, but on the T81A, it is
full scale receive!  Also does good on the other FM
radio and TV stations around here.

Wonder if others have the same opinion about the early
SN T81s.
