Hi all - I love buying and playing with radios, but I must admit the Icom 756 Pro II has stopped me in my tracks. My Omni's, Elecrafts, etc have all been sold becuase the Pro II just does everything
OoopsForgot one more fascinating rig to come - the Icom 785 - supposedly to be introduced by March, 2003. Again, way too pricey for me, but no extra filters as far as I know.....it will be very inter
Hi folks - Adding to George's comment: but getting a bit too far off topic probably: Another thing that suggests the Pro's are not aimed at cw markets - it will not give you a readout of the wpm sett
Hi folks - Other than the extra filter slot, is there any significant difference between the corsdair and the Corsair II? Thanks for any input. 73/Tim NZ7C
Hi folks - Well, after much indecision and wavering back and forth (driving a few sellers nuts in the process), I have a Corsair II and a 263G on its way to me. It will be sitting next to my Pro II b
Hi folks - Yesterday, after posting a note about buying a Corsair II and my potential on the-air comparison with my Icom 756 Pro II, I was surprized to get a number of unsolicited direct emails which
Hi folks - Got all kinds of interesting responses both direct and on the TT reflector......among them was Ron's interesting comment: "I worked at a local store, now closed, and TenTec had a dealer ne
Hi folks - I want to make sure I am understanding this correctly. TenTec's specs show that the Argo 516 draws 6A on cw TRX at 20 watt. Elecraft's K2 is (albeit about 14watts) is almost half of that f

Looking for an Argosy 525D: Below is the "ideal" but I have not gotten any responses....probably because I was being too specific. So if you have an Argosy 525D you have thought of selling, please se
I do not yet own a Jupitor or an Argonaut V but I did have an OMNI V using Carl's modified chip. That V.9 mod was absolutely outstanding. What I'd like to know now is if the software Carl makes for t
Hi folks - I was interested in Paul's (K9OT) comment about likeing the Corsair II more than the Omni V.9. I'm getting the yen to get an older TenTec and am curious if others prefer the Corsair II ove
Having tried both filters I would agree with Gary. The problem is that it is a subjective issue. We all have different audio tastes so there is no "right" answer. However, TenTec did use the 2.4 filt
Hi - Those of you who have had the opportunity to work with the new Argo, how rugged do you feel it is? Would you consider it stout enough for mobile and reasoable emergency field conditions? Also, i
Hi folks - Like others I am pondering the purchase of the Argo. One thing I got to wondering about. Is there room in the Argo for the guts of LDG Z-ll tuner? Any reason why it would not work with the
