While I am a Yaesu man, I gotta admit that the Icom IC706 Mark IIG is a 
pretty darn nice radio.  I think it is nicer and better laid out than the 
FT-100 Field Commander from Yaesu.  If I were to buy one of these rigs, 
it would be a 706.  It's been out for some time has plenty of 
accessories, etc.
