[ICOM] What happened to Adam.

[Frank A. Ellis]

Hi Group,

FWIW, Adam is still co-owner (with me) of the Icomclassic Yahoo Group and performed some moderator activity a little over a week ago, so he is still active in our group.

I have owned an original 756 non-Pro, as well as three Pro II's and was lucky to have never had any problems with any of them. And I agree wholeheartedly, the surge in reported problems with the Pro II and III are disconcerting, especially the "ESD" issue.
