Hi guys,
I wonder if I can get some important feedback from some knowledgeable ham. I
have the opportunity to purchase a new or used ICOM 756 PROII or a new or
used Yaesu FT-1000MP MKV Field.

Wilderman,

Either rig would be a fine backup tranceiver to your O6+ but the Icom's
gee-whiz color display will wow all the non-ham visitors.

If you shut off all the lights in the hamshack, the ProII display will add a
warm glow to the room, making the QSOs you enjoy on the Ten*Tec
ever-so-much-more-so pleasant.
