there's the fact that it's something else to break, then in my limited space 
there's nowhere to put the control head, it's more wires to get in the way, 
with the radio in the EOC that way I use that control head has taken more 
falls than a life long drunk and has the marks to show it, I've been told it 
looks stupid unless there's a base stand for the control head, and to my 
mind, I have to agree, and it's just a real stupid thing to do. I don't know 
why they can't make a way to attach it to the front of the radio, they 
always used to but now for some reason, they insist on not doing that. Just 
seems to me like having a radio like that in here would be a thousand times 
more aggravation than it's worth. I'll probably have no choice some day, 
especially where I'm wearing out my tmg707A sow ill have to replace that in 
the next couple years and with my luck they'll discontinue it with another 
one, but those are some of my reasons. I hate coax connectors on pigtails on 
the back of the radios too but I have a couple that way and only 1 has broke 
so far, but I bought none of them new and wouldn't buy a radio that way new 
if I had any choice at all.
