Look at the price of the IC-7600 - and that's selling well, as is the 
IC-7700.

There's plenty of money for radios - so many Hams are over 50, children have 
fled the next, so these Hams are spending their childrens' inheritance. I 
would like a good UHF-SHF radio, don't want to buy the IC-910H as I am sure 
it'll be replaced the day after I buy it.

For now I use the TS-2000...
