was that JA reference in the ads , or was it the reactive response of 
some who were busy trying to defend the early burps in the 
Orion...and their decision to buy a "not yet fully burped"  new creature ?????

The JA  business model bashing (esp the pro, pro1, II ) was not the 
product of TT; but of this internet wonderment and not visible elsewhere.

I enjoy MY ICOM 756PROII, and it isn't going into oblivion soon, no 
matter how hard we cuss at it.

Let's all celebrate that TT is going ahead !!!!!
