AES wish book arrived today with a full page ad (inside back cover). No prices yet anywhere that I can find. I'm guessing that it's going to start selling about the time of Hamvention. Any guesses as to what the asking price will be?

I am surprised at such a sudden deterioration in a woman whose only ailment was a lazy anus.
I've been following this with interest for some time now. It's being billed as an "affordable" compact HF/VHF/UHF alternative to the IC-7000 so I'd guess somewhere just south of $1K, although not too very far south of there.
All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.
I'm guessing just south of $2K. The 7000 lists for $1600+/- and sells in the $1200 range. This thing with it's touch screen and D-Star built in can't be less than the 7000.

I see your point, but touch screens are cheap and the "affordable" thing makes me think that it's going to be priced below the IC-7000, as a replacement for the venerable IC-706. As I recall, that unit sold for around $900 in it's last days.Originally Posted by KC9ECI

My guess is $2049.95.

Under $1000 and I'll have a hard time not buying one. The only downside for me on it is actually the touch screen. I've been using them on various machines where I've worked for the last 15 years or so and I'm just not impressed with how they look after a few years of use.

Dream on. The rumor I heard was $2200.

That would be more like it.

Might be good to see if would work with a screen protector sheet over it.
