Scott Robbins  W4PA,

I have heard your name mentioned (in a very positive way) by my neighbor Steve, KØSX here in Cedaredge CO. He has a Tentec station in it;'s entirety and I eventually will move in that direction myself with an Orion 2 etc. I am impressed with your product line,and your attention to feedback on
received via emails etc.

I just wanted to say being an outsider keep up the good work, full speed ahead and damn the torpedoes as the saying goes. Maybe one of these days I will try to make one of your factory hamfests. 73, Curt WØALC Cedaredge, CO (45 miles ESE of Grand Junction)

Good morning,

We've made an error in the way the microphone was designated on our website and literature - the 708 and 709 series microphones are omni-directionals. Everywhere I've looked, it says "uni-directional" except on the base of the production microphone itself, which reads (correctly) "omni-directional".

The picture that reads uni-directional on the base of the microphone on our website is even wrong - that picture was taken (by me...) of an earlier prototype version of the 708 with a different element installed. We did not use a uni-directional in the 708.

I'm going to fix the website later this morning. I'm not sure where the blame lies, but since I proofread both the website copy and the information sheet enclosed in the product box and took the picture on the website I suppose I get my share :-)
