[ICOM] 751 Vs. 751A

[Gary P. Fiber]

Been to long I don't remember all the modification changes but do 
remember about 13 that were suggested.
Some were to actually cut a path through a circuit board traces then 
bridge it with wire due to RFI issues on the main unit.
None were so severe to make it a poor decision to purchase the rig 
though. Every time I played with one it worked fine to me.
I am not sure how much support Icom America is offering for the 751 / A 
series anymore. They have been out of production for a long time now days.
