Ouch! Well, for that price, you can get 2 IC7000s and keep the change. I bought 2 IC7000s AND AH4 tuners for that price, and that's not taking into account local price differences.

The IC-9100 is far from being a bargain - one can find pristine IC-910's for around $900, or $1500 with the 1.2 GHz module installed. In my case, I have plenty of HF radios, so I just needed to add UHF and VHF. A TS-2000 goes from $1600 to $2000 ...

Andreas, It must come with a free small car...Hi, Hi. Icom will have a problem selling it for even $2000. Once again, The manufacturer's don't listen to the Ham crowd. Did anyone ask for this radio? Maybe they donate $3000 to AMSAT for an HEO bird for every one sold? What a fund raiser that would be. Oh well, we can wish and fun about it. Let's hope Yaesu and Kenwood get a lesson here. 73, Dee, NB2F (Icom user)
