Excellent call, Bro. Lawrence. Fannnnn-tastic radio. There's been
rumors of a 706 PRO with color display but that was a year or 2 ago.
Add a good external speaker and the receive audio improves IMMENSELY.
Slightly increase the opening in the rubber "gasket" over the mic
element, and transmit audio gets a tremendous improvement, also.
Slightly, I said. Make it 1/16" total diameter. That's all.
And
http://www.mods.dk has some .. ahem .. interesting .. ahem ..
revisions you can make to the radio. (Proceed at YOUR OWN risk.)
