Default IC-735 versus IC-726

I am just starting out on HF and have the opportunity to buy an Icom
735 for $295US or an Icom 726 for $275.. Which would you say is the
better deal? 6m would be nice but isn't a necessity. I'd like
something that will last a while. Is there a lot the 735 has that the
726 does not have?

Thanks,
Dan

Just my 2 cents worth Dan. . . go for the 1 that has the 6 meters. For
$25.00 difference I would opt for the one with 6 meters.

I am happy with the IC735 on CW, but it does not have 6m. It is a standby
rig but solid.
