[ICOM] ProIII and TX5C

It never occurred to me to put a DSP in front of my 781. Does it make much 
difference?

You know - you are not the only one telling me that the 781 is still a 
keeper.
And I was surprised at some of the NAMES telling me this.  The little bit I 
have
played with the PRO-III was interesting.

I was able to work VP6DX on every band in SSB AND CW last month.  Using only 
a
T2FD dipole no less.  I have only made 89 contacts on it since 1 Jan 2000, 
so it
isn't well used.  But it sure is well cared for.  Along with the Timewave
DSP-599ZX, it may just be good enough for me still!  With 89 contacts in 8
years, is it worth changing?  Just thinking it over.....
