>From QST, Oct. 1995, page 145.
Full page TenTec ad for the Scout.

"The SCOUT is the smallest HF rig in the industry (excluding QRP) measuring
only 2.5" X 7.25" X 9.75....."
"If the SCOUT won't fit in your car, nothing will"

>From same QST page 16. Full page ad for IC-706.
"Super compact at 6 9/16(w) X 2 1/4 (h) X 7 7/8 (d).

It was nice for both companies to publish the measurements.
