I'm with Ron on this one..
I've had one for years
100 watts on 2
75 watts on 432 
10 watts on 1296

Also use the ICOM mast mounted preamps for 432 and 1296 
Great operation, I use the 2 meter side as a IF for 903 and 2304
transverters

The IC-910H (high power) all tricked out with 1296 is a great tri-band
radio.

OK People,

Please forgive me.  In retrospect, I should have clarified what I'm
cosidering, and asked for input from people as to which they think is
best.
Here goes:

1.     Thanks for the HF/VHF/UHF all-in one rig sugestion. But I already
have several (albeit older) HF rigs.  I'd prefer not to get another one.

2.  Here's a listing of what I'm considering:

Yaesu FT-726R; Yaesu FT-736R; Kenwood TS-790; Kenwood TS-780  (remember,
I'd like to have 1296 capability, but if the price is right, it's not
the end of the world if the rig only does 2 & 432); ICOM IC-820; ICOM
IC-821; ICOM IC-910.

73,
Ellen - AF9J
