[ICOM] IC-7100

[Jim Miller KG0KP]

I don't see this thing being "mobile".  Motor home, yes, limited space, yes, 
great for RVers or campers, driving down the road mobile, no.

First, where do you put it, no table in my vehicles.  It is innovative in 
physical design and actually practical for desk use especially for those 
people who have problems with radios sliding when they poke the buttons.

Mic mount to control head where it should be and speaker remote from body 
and of reasonable size also excellent.  Seems it would "fit" into an office 
environment on your desktop for background monitoring and part time use 
while "working".  Lots of features, but mobile?  Don't think so.

Love HF mobile for years (706 MkIIG barefoot).

Just an opinion, fire suit on.
73, de Jim KG0KP
