[PCR-1000] When can we expect the NEW PCR1000?

[Mike Curtis]

For the money it is probably the best deal in HF.

Is the ICOM R75 a good HF receiver?

ICOM JAPAN
http://www.icom.co.jp/products/receiver/index.html is still showing all
receivers, including the PCR-100.
However, the "English Site"
http://www.icom.co.jp/world/products/receivers/index.htm
is limited to the handhelds. No more R8500, no more R75, no more
PCR-1000.

Rumors or reality?

The Rochester (NY) hamfest had the same rumours about ICOM, plus tons of
negative comments about their mind-set in dealing with their customers.

Outside of the lone PCR-1000 everything in my shack is Yaesu, and has
been
since the early 70's.  Yaesu has always given me (and others) terrific
support even on some very old gear.

I will probably off-load my PCR shortly, as I just ordered the Yaesu
VR-5000
rcvr (fully optioned).

Regards, RJ
