[ICOM] IC 756PROII value?

[Phil Krichbaum]

    I paid about $2300 for a NIB PROIII at the time they were closing 
them out but it did not include the PS. I would think $1000 for a PROII 
would be high. I've not before heard of a problem with the screen on a 
PROII but it was a problem with the original 756 before DSP. The DSP on 
the 756PRO left a lot to be desired as it was easily overloaded on the 
one I used.

    PS It would be interesting to know if Icom has solved the ESD 
problems that were fairly common on the PROII and III on the latest and 
best and more expensive incarnation?
