[ICOM] Pro3 Fan Questions

[Phil Krichbaum]

    A friend who is a RF engineer stated if they admitted they blew the 
design, they should come up with a recall or modification and fix every 
one made that got sent in for repair for free. Probably why they 
continue to replace the blown parts with ones of the same rating. At 
least the repair guys can probably do this one with their eyes closed by 
now. It is a shame they don't take better care of their customers with a 
very popular rig like this. I wonder if it has been fixed in the next 
version?
