This will work GREAT in a car. I'd use a 102" whip for receive-only.

Didn't I say that before?

Go to http://www.icom.co.jp/world/products...703/index.html
and download the PDF brocure, you'll love the picture on the cover.

BTW, the 706 is the same rig with more coverage and 100 watts out on HF. Since
it is more popular, you may be able to find a used one cheaper if you want to
to that way. Note there were several models of both, so make sure you buy the
one you really want.

Don't mount a radio like that in your car permanently, or se-mi
permanently.
It is like candy to thieves.

The 706, and many of the other's I recommended have removable and or
remotable front panels. You can mount the radio in the trunk and run a cable
(or with the newer ones a fiber optic) to the front.

I live in a neighborhood full of cops, firefighters, truckers, and blue
collar entertainment workers. I am 30 miles North of Beverly Hills.
There has been one burglary in 10 years, and that was a recently evicted
family member. I do not judge my neighbors and I do look out for them.
