The IC 730 was my first transceiver back to early eighties. This transceiver belongs to a romantic era of my radio life. Unfortunately someday I took the wrong decision to exchange it to a more modern TS 440. I truly regret for this choice ever since. Recently thanks to my friend SV1GH I have it back to my shack just to remind me my very start. The photo has been taken in SV8YM lab, who undertook the task to align and restore it in order to make it fully operational again. Now it is sitting comfortably in its place like it never left.
