I still have it. The internal mic died, but started using the speaker/mic I bought a few years ago. It is a great radio, 20+ years old and still going. I also have an IC-04AT still going strong, an IC-12GAT, and the old reliable IC-1200 for mobile use. Can't seem to part with them after all these years. Not many folks using 1.2, but can be fun to try and DX with. Made a few contacts in Japan with it, hard to believe, but it can be done.
I will take a look at the ones suggested. Thanks for all your suggestions, now I get to go a :read: up on them.
