Email from Universal after I inquired as to the price:

"Thanks for the email. We are aware of this new receiver but at this time
Icom has not released any information . We will post it on our website
as soon as we receive it. Sure looks like a nice one."

It'll be a nice one if the daggone sideband-selectable S-AM works as
advertised.


And I'm certain you'll pay a respectable price as well. My guesstimate of the
price is $4500 (or more!).

Waaal, with the 7800 transceiver at $10,000 plus, $4500 sounds
downright reasonable, and maybe a little low.

Does this puppy have selectable roofing filters?
