[ICOM] IC-7600 at Tokyo Hamfair 2008

[Adam Farson]

Hi Ted,

The reason for the omission of 2m is probably market demand. The projected
sales delta would not have justified the additional cost and complexity of a
2m section.

Cheers for now, 73,

Hi Guys
 It would be nice to see Two Meters added to this. The 746 was a great hit
with the addition of 2 meters. I wonder why they only built one rig that
way??
