Time was the ICOM 751 (with Mutek) was the only VHR multiband to have.

My 736 is deaf as a post on 70cm, BTW. Good job it has a mast head pre-amp
switch (and power thru the antenna socket) on the front panel - it certainly
needs it. Not so on 2 or 6m though.

The FT480-R was a good radio but the push switches on the front panel
are worked by conductive 'rubber' which , now , are starting to fall
appart .allong with other funny faults occuring . nice set for your
qrz.com blag photo , bet there's not many who have the 480/780 and
the combined stand/power supply unit , would polish up a treat :-)

I knew that's what you meant...

I've had a few old Icoms and had nothing but problems with dry solder
joints...I'm sticking with the FT-736R...outperforms my FT-847...

2m SSB sounded like 20m a couple of days ago with the Meteor Shower.

I must get down the club station and put a few calls out then. Is it still
the norm to call CQ on .300 then QSY?

yes.

Tuesday evenings seem to be the most active.
