[ICOM] Breaking IC706Mk2 maybe

[Scott Vanzandt]

I would think the filter and DSP separate and the remainder as a unit on
something like ebay would bring the highest price.

I have just been informed that my IC706 Mk 2 is beyond economical repair 
in that it needs a new main board. The UK importer advises that the cost 
of this together with the associated other charges will be more than the 
current market value of the radio. Therefore I am considering either 
selling it as a whole for parts or breaking it into parts for individual 
sale. Radio has DSP module and 1.9KHz ssb narrow filter.

What do you folks think regarding the most appropriate approach, I've 
never slaughtered a radio before, and what sort of value might I realise 
overall?

Many thanks for your thoughts at this time of my loss.
