The New ICOM 7800 For HF (cost$$)
The is the real scoop on the Icom`s 7800
I have gone to Icom day at a local Icom dealer The ( W9) rep has given me some scoop... The real price tag of the Icom 7800 is going to be very close to the $10,000 (Ten Thousand).. The Receiver is Dual Conversion and in conjuction with DSP and both receivers are equal... Transmitter 200 W. The 7800 looks like a real busy radio, lots of information being displayed and menu driven...the manual must be real thick ! The radio looks great with its display...dual meters. Well thats it...... |

For that money I'd expect at least a quad conversion receiver with a CRT for a display and not some cheesy LCD. Maybe the government might buy these (they'll buy anything), but anyone who knows anything about radios wont pony up $4000 for these turkeys. |
For this kind of Cash it should come with a big tittied blonde to spin the
