Various icom repair stations, see qst or eham for names, can give a quick turn

 Thanks so much! What a fantastic site!
 
 Most of the “click me” downloads on the web are virus or phishing links.

 You can find the service manual at ko4bb.com, and it is an excellent copy. 
 Good luck with the repair.

 Howdy All,
 
 I was chatting with the gang on 146.940 when an electrical odor appeared in 
 the car. Turns out, it was the finals in my IC-2720H.
 
 If anyone has a service manual or knows if it can be fixed quickly, let me 
 know. I’m planning on making a big trip over the next 3 weeks and would 
 love to have a mobile radio. (And yes, Dasha [XYL]will be home with a 
 loaded shotgun…)
 
 I’ve had a run of bad luck. Had I known the finals would burn up, I would 
 have prayed to God for winning a rig at the hamfest.

Ham-radio enthusiast, Hezekiah Bambershoot, of Ft Jackson, was arrested
yesterday at police headquarters for disorderly conduct and assaulting a
police officer.Bambershoot initially came to headquarters reporting he had
been victimized by buying a radio from a mysterious Californian named Ellie
Craft.

Ms Craft allegedly took advantage of Bambershoot by claiming to have
down-conversion which he mistook for a syndrome of the same name.
Bambershoot was happy with his purchase until his friends told him all the
problems he should be having with his new radio.

According to Police spokesman, Ken Wood, The poor man was distraught and
raving about roofing filters.What the heck are roofing filters?

The arrest report filed by fellow-ham, Officer Ike Com, listed
Bambershoot's original complaint as radio mushiness but notes, I told
him all my radios sound mushy but he was upset he couldn't hear it on
his.When we tried to calm him down he became unruly.

Su Yae, an EMT called to the scene, defended Bambershoot saying, When I
got there they claimed he was making clicking noises with his keys but I
never heard any key-clicking.The poor man was just frustrated because his
purchase had so many faults he couldn't find.I feel sorry for him.

Bambershoot is being held on $10,000 bond.Police are still searching for
the elusive Ellie Craft.

nice little play on words for today.

i heard the gate at the bvarc hamfest was so low that some people simply 
refused to enter thereby causing a decrease in revenue from previous 
years. maybe next year the gate will raise a little higher. happy first.
