Hi,

I was rather vocal of the Argonaut VI. Part of my criticism concerned adding 160 meters and skipping 12 meters. I know the why for both. Perhaps I could have handled the concept better if it had only 3 or 5 bands. I don't know, but it just seemed odd that 160 meters would be so important in a 10 watt radio.

Any body think it might be kind of cool if the Argonaut 7at became a simpler, but direct competition for the KX3? Hmmmm, how about if the box was a smaller version of the box for the 515?

I am mostly a casual operator here, so my Corsair II is more than adequate for my needs. I am more interested in what happens to the Argonaut line. I have had excellent performance with my Argonaut VI and my 6 meter transverter and Mirage brick amplifier. I just ordered 6 and 2 meter transverters from Down East Microwave to replace my Elecraft units. So, I may spring for a new Argonaut when Ten Tec gets them back into production.
