| ICOM 720A.............AN AFFORDABLE CLASSIC 10-160 METERS 100 WATTS SSB/CW 40 WATTS AM AND A FANTASTIC GENERAL COVERAGE RECEIVER THE 720A IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF STATE OF THE EARLY 1980'S ART TECHNOLOGY THE AM AUDIO ON THESE IS COMPLETE SHIT LIKE MOST HF RIGS OF THE ERA,BUT A SUPERB SSB PERFORMER. THE 720 ISNT WITHOUT ITS DRAWBACKS THE BANDSWITCH IS POWERED BY A ELECTRIC MOTOR THATS NOISY AS HELL AND A LOT OF TROUBLE AND THE EARLY MODEL C.P.U IS QUIRKY,BUT ALL THAT ASIDE ITS STILL A GREAT MACHINE WITH A 1981 M.S.R.P OF $1339.00 720'S ARENT WORTH SHIT THESE DAYS AND I PICKED THIS ONE UP OFF ONE OF THE DARK CORNERS OF THE WEB FOR $150.00 SO FOR THE SAME PRICE OF A GOOD USED UNIDEN HR-2510 I STRONGLY RECOMMEND PICKING ONE UP |
