[TenTec] Mobile

[Mike Smith VE9AA]

As the guy who started this thread I have to say I find the various comments
quite interesting and I thank everyone for them !

 

Hopefully, John and the folks at Ten-Tec are listening and given the amount
of MOBILE comments, hopefully something will be in the offing

at some point in time.

 

I have operated mobile off and on since I was licensed in the late 70's
(more ON than off, thankfully) and always found a way to get even big rigs
like a HW-101 or FT-101E mounted in the car.

 

Nowadays however, with tiny plastic cars, things are a lot different.

 

I will say I am quite pleased with my FT-857D in my MINI COOPER, but would
put my money where my mouth is if Ten-Tec came out with something small with
a remote face.(and the rest of the req's I wrote at the start of this
thread)

The only way I can mount a radio(head) nowadays is on a specialized post
that fits inside a cupholder (bought it at AES Milwaukee ~3 yrs ago when I
was there) with the main part of the radio located elsewhere.

 

Keep the comments coming boys.

 

Hopefully John Henry and Mr. Dishop watch these lists.
