Yeah, but you can't watch TV on a 706. You can on a 7000. :-)

.... for as long as NTSC analog TV remains on the air, which is likely
to be a lot less than the useful lifetime of a 7000.

Now, if they can provide a way to download an ATSC decoder and
MPEG-2 decompressor into the 7000's DSP, they might just have a
gimmick which will survive for a while :-}

Roger,

Here in the USA, the Federal Communications Commission must
grant Type Approval to commercially-made amateur radio gear
before it can be sold.

ONLY when it is capable of receiving above 30 MHz must it be approved
for FCC Part 15. The Commerically made amateur transmitters are not
tested and only need meet the technical requirements of FCC Part 97
just like any home built transceiver.

Bzzzzt, Wrong answer, would you like to try again for what is behind
Door No.2?

Your confusing "Type Approval", "Type Acceptance" and Part 15 Spec's.

There is a very LARGE difference between, each of the above, and if you
don't know the difference, then you shouldn't be commenting on it.....

Me one who knows.....

Type Approval is only required for external, commercially manufactured
amplifiers capable of operation below 144 Mhz. As others have
correctly pointed out, a transceiver only has to meet Part 15 (and the
emission standards of [97.317].

Hmm, it is $1499.99 at the AES web site. If it were a penny more, it
would qualify for their free shipping.

Well, order a PL-259 or a Repeater Guide or whatever when you order.
Or you could just order it for the same price at HRO with free
shipping over $100. I buy from both companies, but if I am doing mail
order, I go with HRO.
