Funny you mention that - I got an Icom mic for my HT from a fellow in
Japan (via Amazon) for MUCH cheaper than any domestic vendor.
Shipping was clearly via a slow boat from Japan, but no matter.

Much discussion about the Icom USB implementations over on the DXLab
list a while back.  Seems the radios create a COM port for CI-V but
some also create a 2nd COM port for FSK.  None of my gear has USB so I
didn't pay close attention to which radios did which, but if you have
any of the newer Icom gear, it might be worth grepping through that
Yahoo! Group's archives for the details.
