That was the TX-100. I used to own one. Moore must have left out a zero in his
model number listing.It
was the only tube rig Ten-Tec ever made. Don't think they made many of them.
They're quite a
collector's item now.

> Raymond Moore, in his book "Transmitters, Exciters and Power Amplifiers, 1930
> - 1980" lists the Ten
Tec TX-10. It was made in 1971, sold for $99.50, covered 80 - 10 meters, CW
only, 100 watts input to
the final, and had a Pi network output circuit. He shows a picture of it as
well. It has a meter with a
clear plastic bezel on the left, a cluster of four knobs (3 smaller knobs and a
larger one that appears to
be a bandswitch) on the right, a crystal socket in the bottom center, a power
switch on the bottom left,
and a jack on the bottom right. If Moore lists it in his book it is probably a
tube transmitter.
