Yes…that's exactly what my buddy Dale (WB9YCZ) does with one of his 706 rigs. Using the Remote Rig interfaces he has the 706 radio body located at his home QTH with all the normal HF & VHF antennas and has the 706 radio head mounted in his BMW SUV along with the other Remote Rig interface. His connection to the internet for the Remote Rig interface is via his Verizon Jetpack also mounted in his car.

When we were running around Cape Coral together back in March he was talking to some of his Indianapolis friends on 52 simplex and through a couple repeaters using the radio located at his Indy QTH.

That is a great price!

Note this rig can be used with a Remote Rig setup, so the front panel can be separated from the body and used over a network.

Wey asked me to pass this along to the Fourlanders group to offer first dibs on this really nice all mode IC-706.

It is not the 706 MKII or 706 MKIIg but the original 706 and DOES have 144-148 MHz capability.

If interested please contact Wey on email at  weymouth01@comcast.net

(Most all Ebay asking prices for functioning IC-706s look to be in the $450 and up range so Wey's asking price is a good one and his radio is pristine)

I'm selling my IC-706 ... it comes with an electret mic and a double-fused
power cable that is terminated with Anderson Powerpole connectors ... I
printed the manual double-sided and there is a PDF file copy of the manual ...
