I think the death of the novice class sounded the end of CW only rigs.
With CW requirements going the same way a CW only rig would not seem to be
profitable to manufacture.
The only group keeping CW only radios alive nowadays is the QRP crowd.
What I would like to see Ten Tec look into is a digital mode radio.
One that works CW, RTTY, PSK31, ect. digital modes as a stand alone rig
without the need of a computer, a soundcard, or a TNC.
A display screen like the Jupiter/Orion and a keyboard.
Of course it should be able to do SSB also.

Just to add my two cents worth, I would like to see a modern version of
the
Century 21--a CW version that is above and beyond anything being made
today.
I have an Omni VI Plus that is a wonderful radio, but i would like to
have
one that performs as well in the size of my Argonaut V. By the way, know
there
are many of us out here who truly appreciate you, your company, and the
wonderful products you produce....73, Ci
