 2. AGC on all older TT rigs takes some getting used to. Prior to the Omni
 V and Paragon, they used audio derived AGC which could not respond to
 sudden impulses. Wearing headphones could result in ear damage. MFJ's DSP
 unit has it's own AGC which helps limit the audio level. It's worth a try.

Boy, that statement says it all. My Century 21 did a job on my ears a number 
of times when wearing headphones. I finally got smart and did not use 
headphones with that radio. I wonder how many other people got stung by the 
older Ten Tec rigs ?
