Speaking of the 706 does anybody have a doc or txt manual.  I happened to 
fall into one that I am supposed to pick up this weekend and know nothing 
about the radio besides it does HF, 2 meters and 440.  I'm planning on 
putting it in the wife's car with a dummy load on HF because my HF antenna 
is a mag mount and she don't want it left on the car.



I'm not a republican or a democrat, I'm an American and I'm proud to be one.
