[ICOM] 7600 and Dual Watch... "it's a mix"

[Phil Krichbaum]

    It is amazing that Icom sticks with the Dual Watch on the PROIII etc 
which is funky to use compared to doing split with a MP etc and both 
rigs being upper end. If you use Dual Watch a lot you sort of get used 
to it, but the MP is a lot easier to use split if you don't do it every day!
