Ok here is one for you, I have an Icom IC 706 MK II G and I am 
considering upgrading it up to the IC - 7000.  What is everyone's 
evaluation for this upgrade.   What does everyone think of the 7000 
compared to the 706 MK II G ?   I know the 7000 has IF DSP but what else 
would I be getting for the increase in cost besides the obvious eye 
candy color screen.   I know the MK II G is still a popular radio and I 
would be able to sell it pretty easy,  Is the 7000 worth the extra money 
to upgrade.   This radio would primarily be used for mobile communications.

Thank you,

Eric
