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

Hi Jan,

Many thanks for the kind comments about my reviews. I am constantly
improving my test capability (although my little lab space is bursting at
the seams!)

A less costly alternative is IC-7700 + Perseus (if you can accept the
Perseus' user interface. I still have reservations in that area; "mousing" a
radio is not for me.)

Cheers for now, 73,
Adam VA7OJ/AB4OJ

Hi Dick and Adam,
I haven't used a 7600, but have found Adam's reviews of 7800, 7700, and 7600
most useful and informative (as usual).
On the other hand, I CAN attest that the 7700 receiver outperforms the 7800
(I had them in parallel for about a month), and that TWO 7700's, the
receiver of one coupled to the other, is the best receiving setup I have
ever encountered (have been using two 7700s that way for more than a year
now, and as far as I'm concerned it is the "only" way to get dualwatch
without compromise).

Hope all is well with you gentlemen.  Thanks, as always, for all your help
and good advice!
