[PCR-1000] Win XP and Icom Software

Fri, 26 Apr 2002 12:54:14 -0500

Paul,

Well, I got a reply from Icom UK today saying that different divisions 
bundle different software with their packages, and the cost for Radiocom 
is 395.00 pounds UK.  It also said they are fairly sure that Icom 
America will soon bundle the same software with their radio package.

Sounds like a put off to me.  Anyway, I'm going to send a postal letter 
to Icom America, return receipt requested, so they can't ignore my request.
