[ICOM] Icom IC 706 Install

[Mort Arditti]

Eric,

My 706 control unit is mounted on the dash of  a Honda 
Accord with heavy duty Velcro.
I made an 1/8" lexan plate, using heat I bent it to the
contour of the dash. Screws are used only on the
lexan plate and the Velcro is between this plate and the
dash. Now over a year later it is still there. The nice part 
is that it is in line of sight to the road.
I hope this helps.

73,

Mort, KB6BSN
