"Icom 706 ...got it !"

Very nice!

I just might build a custom key into the console of my vehicle and build a magnificent, imposing HF antenna for the top. Maybe a horizontal ring positioned to arc to the top every now and then, when signals are transmitted--something that would have met approval from Tesla.

Zzzzzzzzt! Zzzzzzzt! Pop! Might be pretty cool, especially if I make a special hat that would conduct to the roof.
