Icom 710 converted from Marine to Amateur use
« on: January 21, 2016, 07:04:59 PM »
Picked up my Icom 710 HF rig today. No review yet, but when I do get a chance to wring it out, I will post one up here.

Thanks to Ken for his help in me finding the thing.

Just my opinion.

Cool!

Ordered the mic, power cord, and external speaker yesterday. $168.80 shipped.

Downloaded the manual, too.

Pulled out the MFJ patio antenna, so I will have it ready when we test the radios.

Really looking forward to this.

Jerry

A place here in Reno. I will get the address when I can, if Ken does not beat me to it.
