[ICOM] 7000 hitting the stores

[Jay Eimer]

Supply and demand - some folks thought "better the one I know than the new
"unknown"" so more people chasing (because of the pipeline drying up once
they shut down the assembly line) less radios.  It's amazing how long the
"last one" will stay in a store, though.

Yes I think the 706MKIIG is supposed to be replaced with the 7000. The price
on the FT100D went up once Yaesu discontinued it also.
