[ICOM] Fwd: [OKtraders] New Icom IC-7300 HF/6m XCVR Introduced

Wed Aug 26 13:44:42 EDT 2015

I had thought that the 7410/9100 was the same size as the 746, didn't
realize it was that much larger.  Based on the model number, it seems that
this would be a replacement for the 7200, but based on the looks and such,
it doesn't seem so.  The 7200 was advertised as being a tough, take to the
field radio, this doesn't really look like that.
