ICOM's new 7850 and 7851‏

[Stephen Schrack]

Just wanted to put out a question to the group of experts out there.  Is the new ICOM 7850/7851 something that will top the Sherwood charts or is this new Elite Class Transceiver just a rehash/refresh of the 7800 with updated components.  Can it compete with the K3 and Flex 6700 transceiver numbers or is this radio just marketing hype by ICOM.

Well, I'm not going to buy one to find out. Want to know that answer will
have to wait for Mr. Sherwood to do his check-it-out-the-right-way. Set an
alarm clock to go off in 9 months and recheck his web site.
