Pardon me for jumping in as well, but I had a Kiwa modded R75 before I
bought a R8B, and it's no contest...the R8B is superior and well worth the
extra cost.

Pardon me for jumping in, but as a current R8B owner, do you really
like the unit that much more than the R-75? Mind you, I've never
driven the Icom unit so I have nothing to base a comparison on.
