I bought one of these for a fixed installation at my QTH and this is one great little rig. It have a marvelous receiver and put out 100 watts with no problem. One drawback is the high current draw on receive and that is bad when you are portable on batteries. The thing I love about this radio is the IF DSP that is amazing. The Icom ic-7000 are in another league than the old icom ic-706. See under for specifications from Icom America. (http://www.icomamerica.com/en/products/amateur/hf/7000/default.aspx )
