W1MJ's Problem Resolution
A ham in Texas responded to my review by sending me an Icom service bulletin that appears to address this problem:
Icom Service Bulletin, "Technical Information #928" (225K pdf format)
http://w1mj.home.comcast.net/IcomBulletin928.pdf
At first, Icom America (http://www.icomamerica.com) had denied any knowledge of this problem, and wanted to charge me to fix their design problem. However, after sending them a copy of their own service bulletin, and being rather persistent, Service Manager Rodney Grim finally changed his tune and wrote, "we desire to complete customer satisfaction [sic] and if you will send this unit in, we will perfom this modification and check the unit out completely at no charge."
Icom has performed the modification, and the transmitter now works wonderfully on 15M & 17M.
