[ICOM] IC 756PROII value?

[Frank A. Ellis]

John,

Agreed. There is scarcely any info about the "ICOM Twins" (IC-700T and IC-700R), from circa 1967. The pair also required the IC-700PS for power, and I believe that both the transmitter and receiver were hybrids. I had a few scraps of info on the pair when I was still actively running the Icomclassic web site, I will look around and see if I still have anything on them.
