I have just the opposite opinion. I've owned both the TS-850S/AT and the 
IC-746PRO and would take the ICOM any day. The '850 has serious leakage 
around the filters while the '746PRO has none at all. If you wanted to 
stay with Kenwood, the TS-870S is a much better radio than the '850 
where filters are concerned.

I will say the '746 has had some quality problems - mine went back to 
the factory twice in the first couple of months, but it's been a year or 
so since then and it's been perfect since.
