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

[Declared_Hostile]

That was the same thing that I had heard.  Glad I picked one up before they 
disappeared.

I've had an itch to try out Winradio so I guess this might give me a reason.

Hate to see Icom get out of the wideband tabletop receiver market however. 
The R-8500 is an outstanding receiver and a fairly decent scanner.  Glad I 
got one of those too before they were discontinued.  I'd like to see Icom 
build an R-8500 receiver based on the 7800 chassis and layout.  Something 
with the same (or better) RF performance of the 8500 but with updated 
features and a full color display.  I just can't see Icom abandoning that 
market segment to AOR and others.
