[ICOM] Icom IC-02 AT, 2 m HT FS

[Ken Simpson, W8EK]

Hi Bruce,

Thanks for that info.

The manual that I have is one that I downloaded on line, so who knows
what serial numbers it applies to.  This one is 17xxx; I don't know if
that is early or late.

Actually, when I listed it for sale, I was sort of hoping someone might
come up with an easy answer!

Thanks.

73,

Ken, W8EK
