The Icom PCR-1000 receiver is being discontinued and I heard they were
coming out with a new pc controlled black box receiver to replace it with. I
dont have any info on it yet...anyone else hear anything?

Found this finally It's the Icom PCR 1500

Lots of added stuff in the new one!

Found one on ebay in italy for 360$ so will probably sell for around 400$
here.....the remote head version R-1500 will go for a chunk more

So your saying the slightly under 6000$ radio from ten tec covers almost
exactly the same thing as the new icom that costs around 400 $ ?

No thanks....I already gotta pair of RX-340's and they aint much of a
radio...my old PCR-1000 will keep up with em all the way...matter of fact my
old grundig yb-400 will outdo em at times LOL!

Sorry about you opinion on Tennessee Trash!

Lot's of 340 owners will tell you they wish they had never bought the rig!

They are "FAIR" at best!....And mine have been to Ten Tec twice to see if
they can be "fixed" or "Improved".

Each has had a dozen different antenna systems tried on them and still they
suck. They "Sucked" at Ten Tec on their antenna as well while I was there!

I live 20 minutes from Sevierville and thats why I bought them.

Both of mine will be coming up on Ebay soon.

Now there's a bull**** post. You should try actually using an antenna.
Or maybe you forgot to turn the RX-340s on?

Besides you, I'd like to hear about these "Lot's" [sic].

You tested them, hated them, then bought two. So who is the real
"Tennessee Trash?"

The radio isn't perfect by any stretch -- not by a long shot -- but it
is one of the nicer radios I've had the pleasure of playing with. It
does exactly what I wanted it to do.

....may I suggest that you work on your sales pitch a bit?

I bought two because I live close to Ten Tec in case I needed repair or
service you dip****.

Ten Tecs antenna when I took em back to get em fixed...Better go get your
dyslexia fixed you ****ing retard!
