Liar!
NO BACKLITE control. Read the manual. Icom feels that it's level of illumination is low enough to protect night vision. Luckily a more professional company like Standard Horizon understands what folks like Bob wants and allow for control of the display properly. Sounds like Bob needs to get the Quantum. The Icom has more controllable features. Count them! The SH mic has more controls and a panel with control over BACKLITE! What was Icom thinking? You put that Icom torch up near you face and it's going to be like the 4th of July in your retina! The handset is the size of a sewer lid! Only because I said it was a bit large, but really about the same size of the lesser Icom Command mic with it's blinding display. I think Icom figured it was a daytime only radio for Scotty.
