[LOGic] 2 RIGS IN LOGIC

Wed Nov 28 22:12:59 EST 2007

Hi Ben...
Unfortunately, the rigs in question are a Yaesu & Kenwood. There is a an 
IC706 which I use sometimes in contests or as a backup rig, but that's 
really not in the equation. However, I should not rule out that Icom, as 
it's part of the current rig inventory! I do have a CIV interface, but only 
use it (ocasionally) when the Icom is part of a Field Day setup.
