[ICOM] 7800 and 7600

[Robert Chudek - K0RC]

This was the first big disappointment when I switched from my Kenwood 
TS-950SDX to the Pro III. I was accustomed to having independent audio 
RX channels for my two RTTY decoders. That's impossible on the Icom's 
except for the 7800.

The second disappointment was how noisy the fan(s) were in the Pro III 
and its PS-125 power supply. Even though I'm "half deaf", the roar from 
these fans is very distracting and annoying.
