Re: [IRCA] Icom 756Pro

["Tim Kridel" <tkridel@xxxxxxxxx>]

I occasionally DX MW using a TS-570G. It's pretty good, but I still prefer
the R8 for its more natural audio, which is better for extended DXing and
listening.

Don't know. If you are near a Ham Radio store you could test.  I'm not going
to Ham Radio Outlet in Atlanta anytime soon, but if I were, I'd test it for
you. The Kenwood TS-50 I have is not really too bad. 
I was playing with mine on MW and forgot I was supposed to have a schedule
with someone on 40 meters when I got a phone call asking if something was
wrong.....  ]:)
