I had the pleasure of working with both Scott and Kuni during my time at 
Icom. Also was there when Paul at I think the Icom Service Center South 
East started servicing Icom products, he was in Georgia at that time.
Matt came after my time at Icom I think but I have worked with him at 
Dayton. It was nice to have another technical person to bounce questions 
off there when the other techs were not attending.
There are many others who are also very capable that I have fielded 
phone calls from over the years.
The nice thing about these 4 I mentioned if they think there is another 
better suited to work on a particular product they will tell you.
They used to call each other in years past and likely still do, no sense 
reinventing the wheel when another already has.
Kuni used to be a shipboard radio operator. He sure can operate CW 35 or 
40 WPM maybe faster.
