Mrs.E.'s GB has an Icom IC700 or 710 (can't remember which one) that has the
marine freqs plus all the HF ham freqs. Next summer I'll set up the antenna
again (taken down during the boat refurbishment) and see if I can figure it
out.


I'd recommend replacing it with an Icom 802. The 802 makes a much
better ham rig and it goes back to marine only with the push of a
button.
