Hi Scott, I have not used the Z100 with the 706 but used it with a FT-817 
and had no problem using it. It is a lot quieter then the AT-11MP (but I 
like the meter in it). Their is a LDG yahoo group and on the group picture 
shows the 706 with the Z100 on it. I would recommend the Z100, and as far as 
selling it right now no. Maybe after I make a trade, because I do need to 
keep one of the tuners to use with my Jupiter.
