[ICOM] I love my 706g

Sounds reasonable to me, Kurt.  I'd be interested in seeing how it comes
out.

What's your source for the helicals?

I am considering some brute force helical filters for 2m and 440, something
in the 80-90db range, space isn't an issue so much as a usable radio.  These
would be switched in, so a seperate one for HF, 6m, 2m, 440, would be OK.
