Hey all - I am the happy owner of a great, but vintage  ICOM 740. I am 
considering hunting for a used bargain Pegasus (or Jupiter). I would like to 
try a rig with a DSP IF stage, plus I am interested in the performance of the 
radio when doing SW listening (something I lack with the 740).

My other 2nd rig option would be a ICOM 706 MKII, though it offers only a AT 
DSP, it seems like quite a deal considering how much they manage to pack into 
the rig.

Any comments on the used Pegasus (Jupiter) vs. the ICOM 706? The only thing I 
am sure of is that if I found a deal on a Pegasus I would want the real VFO 
knob.

Thanks and 73's
