A major advantage for me is that the 7700 will engage both pre-amp 1
and 2 in both LF and MW bands, whereas this is not possible on the
756.

Although I haven't done the MW mods on mine,
I thought they allowed for pre-amp activation?

Hi Bart,
The 756PROIII has done sterling work for me in the last three and a
half years. The MW mod removes the factory attenuation that is there
below 1600 Khz nicely, but alas, the mod to do the pre-amp enable for
the Pro3 has not been published and is a whole different and quite
involved mod. So the pre-amps cannot be enabled on the Pro3 below 1600
Khz.
