Got the wife an Icom 7100 with an Ameritron controller for her antenna...
pulled the console and ran the wiring under it. The body of the radio is mounted
on one of the pull down seats in the back of her ford ranger.

The antenna is a little tarheel HP.
Tunes perfectly from 40 meters thru 6 meters....
added a mag mount for VHF/UHF... she finds the combo much easier to use than her old 706MKIIG.

Thanks. She liked using the 7100 i have in my go box...so, I put one in her truck...
she likes the touch screen feature... and now all she has too do is touch the screen to set the band she wants to work, hit the button on the tuner to auto tune and she is on the air...making things easy for the wife, makes them easy for me.
