You want product obsolesance.?...How about the Icom's progression of "new & improved" starting with the IC-756, followed by the IC-756PRO, IC-756PRO II, IC-756PRO III , and finally (?) the IC-7600.

I'll admit, they suckered ME into it....had 'em all.

Got a K3/P3/VGA now.

Think about your "problem" this way: When Yaesu wanted to upgrade the FT1000MP, they brought out the more expensive and poorer-performing Mark-V Field (sorry if I offend, but the difference in RX performance between the two has been long noted). When they decided to grade the Mark V Field, the came out with the more expensive and poorer-performing FT2000. When they needed to upgrade the FT2000, they came out with the better-performing and MUCH more expensive FT5000. See a pattern here?
