[ICOM] Digital modes with IC 706 MK2G

[Jim]

Dave,

Don't worry about that.  I know that most operators, when a question is 
asked, will often receive answers that might not fully apply to the 
situation that prompted the question in the first place.  Still, most 
answers to a question will have at least some useful information that could 
be very useful to the operator seeking the information.

73,
Jim  KD5VXH
