FYI to you guys and anyone else with an Icom IC 7100; there is a firmware upgrade available from Icom. It is release E5 dated Jan. 15, 2016 and improves the power meter and speech compressor function. I downloaded it this morning with no issues (so far). Good luck, Mike W4DL EL96wf https://www.icom.co.jp/world/support/download/firm/IC-7100/release_e5/
