I've had a 746pro for the last three years. I used it mostly on VHF
and 6 where it tolerates my antennas, which are 1.3 and 1.5 at band
edges. On hf, the tuner's a little slow on 80 meters, but I don't
see much foldback in power according to my wattmeter, and once the
tuner finds a setting it likes on 80 I get full power.
I have an Icom 2800H which has worked into some horrible loads while
using it at Rally New York. Smacking the antenna with tree limbs
will do that. The radio still works 100%.
