[ICOM] IC-7000 Price at HAMCOM hamfest?

[Gary P. Fiber]

Misconception Jerry. The $1099 price was not Icom's doing. It was AES 
and HRO's doing. They seem to do that every year take a loss on 
equipment. More than once I could have purchased equipment there at less 
than when I was an employee. Makes no sense to most as they are loosing 
but remeber they make a lot up on accessories as those generally go for 
manufactuer's suggested price. So a loss on a few main frames and reap 
the benefits on the returns for the accessories.

I am not attending Hamcom so I don't know what the pricing will be. It 
depends on the dealers.
