Just came across this, a new Radio from Icom. Here is a link for more info. https://dx-world.net/new-icom-ic705/
I feel the same way. I find it hard to believe that it's going to be under a grand. It just has to many features. D Star on board will drive the price up. I just wish it had an on board ATU. The IC 703 series had an good on board tuner. They missed the boat on this one ! Barry, KU3X/QRP
