[ICOM] 765 freq problem

[Gary Fiber]

For some reason the link does not work, but typing in Icom IC0765 problems
into Google brings it right up as the 1st link. The FAQ also mentions the
BFO trimmers being an issue with drift. Here is the link again this time not
from my iPad but a desktop. http://www.qsl.net/icom/oldicomfaq/ic-765.html
