There doesn't seem to be many mobile HF radio's coming out any more. Yaesu introduced the FT-891 but that was years ago. Icom is still sticking with the ugly IC-7100 and Kenwood has no mobile HF radio. Alinco doesn't make HF radio's anymore either. Is this the end of HF mobile radio?

Now that MFJ is gone, there also isn't a mobile HF all band amp anymore that I know of.

To me, the best HF mobile is still the Icom -IC-7000. They are still available used for around $800 or less if you get lucky.

These have all the features you would want for a mobile HF rig plus a nice color display screen and a video out jack so you can easily add a larger display screen which I did making the display even nicer!
