[ICOM] Icom 706 MKIIG cap/mars mod

[n5wv at eastex.net]

Now really think about what the odds would be of that really happening in the real world when most hams 
follow the rules and more and more public service is on 800 mhz or another band/mode that the rig cant 
operate on. Then someone would have to prove that you actually did the mod. One can really worry and think 
on something too much. You could say , What if you put a switch in it for utility ops and then the new 
owner switches it back on or says that you sent it too him with the rig switched on for utility ops. What 
if the new owner does the mod and if he got caught says that the previous owner did the mod ? Thers no end 
to it. To really be safe one may just keep the rig until you die or do the self distruct thing like US 
Special Forces do to there radios before they fall into other hands. They use C-4 but a good 25lb sledge 
hammer will do the trick just as good.  Sorry Dick ,    Randy N5WV

 Hey Clete et al .... I never heard of this ever before, so way curious where 
that information is documented   ????

   "Now you are responsible if some
unauthorized person does just that, transmit on a frequency that they
shouldn't be.  You run a great risk if you pass the radio on to someone
else later.  Perhaps you'll want to trade it or whatever sometime."
