Paul,

Will you share with us any details of the DSP circuit you plan on installing
in your IC-706 MkIIG?

I have been reading the email on the subject of CW being dropped as a
requirement to obtain a Ham License. 

I probably do not feel as bad as some because I had processed this in my
mind some months ago. I figured the FCC would drop the CW requirement
eventually. 

I am only 99% CW operator!! Not 100%!! I still enjoy sitting back and
enjoying a nice mellow high definition audio sound!

Since i have all the acessories I need for my Elecraft K1 and KX1 in January
when I am back home I intend to make my Icom a "Keeper!"

Improvements in the 706MKIIG will be a better preamp and I am going to
remove the DSP and install another DSP circuit that will work much better. I
live in abt a S-8-9 noise area!
