Default ICOM IC-7200

The Instruction Manual for the above has been posted at:
http://www.ab4oj/icom/ic7200/int.html
Scroll to bottom of page and click on manual PDF.
Manual is close to 100 pages of printout.
FCC certification for this Ham rig was granted on July 28/08.
Now to burn some midnight oil checking out this new DSP rig
which has a huge range of bandwidths for all modes -no extra crystal
filters to buy. And 200 memories. Wonder what the price will be...
Drool....
Good listening and operating to all from SW4ever...

Looks like a replacement for the IC-746PRO = similar size and similar
features.
Price probably in that bracket too.
Will make a lovely top end HF SW receiver.
Sadly, also attenuated on the MW band below 1700 kHz by 11 dB.

Not at all a bad price, considering all they've packed into it feature-
wise. I'll be interested in reading the reviews, as they emerge.

I was actually surprised by the price myself. I had been giving some
consideration to getting a '718, but may have to think it over some more.

Damn. You're right, I remembered it backwards; it's an 817.

That's not the only thing you remember backward. You seem to get most
things backward.
