Scott from SideKX also has a very nice mobile mount that the KX2 just snaps
into. It in turn has holes for the very popular AMP mounting solutions.
I'm using this with a KX2 to drive a KXPA100 in my RAV4 (the one Bill, AE6JV -
the O.P. passed on the road that made him think about mobile op's :-) It fits
perfectly just below my dashboard in the center console.

A few weeks ago I passed a car with the license WA6HHQ and it got me to
thinking: What if Elecraft made a radio specifically designed as a mobile
radio? Here are some of my ideas:
It would have a UI designed to minimize driver distraction. This UI might draw
inspiration from the 5 button AM radios of old, which could tune pre-sets
without looking at the radio.
It would:
Cover 80M-6M with 2M and 70cm being nice additions.
Be available with 50-100W maximum output
Have a small control head with a separation cable if necessary.
Have a "hands free" operation option
One intriguing idea would be to use the smartphone interfaces available in
some newer cars to provide the entire radio UI in a form that is well
integrated into the auto console. Or at least use it as a panadapter display.
