Thanks, Carl - I believe I got my first one in the late 70's and borrowed a
friend's Vomax to make comparisons. I picked up what appears to be a brand
new one at some flea market for about $15 which is still sitting on a shelf
unused. But, for that matter, since I stopped using the IC-765 radio and
went to the Kachina and Icom PRO, I have not used either of the Comdels or
the Vomax, which I also picked up for a song! But with the 765, the Comdel
was almost the equal of a medium-powered linear.
