As has been noted, Rob Sherwood emphasizes that one must like one's rig first and foremost. With that in mind, I am seriously considering making my Argosy 525 (analog) the go-to rig when I operate po

If wishes were horses, I'd like to see T-T come out with a 200-watt rig with a built-in power supply (and AT) perhaps w/o some of the fancy visual stuff, which I don't particularly cotton to. This is

In answer to some questions, In my condo I have limited desk space, so it's nice to have everything in one box. I use a Buddipole mounted semi-permanently on our balcony, and the whips extend close t

My problem with no "Flagship" rig offering by Ten-Tec revolves around the fact that it must be very hard (perhaps impossible) to produce in the U.S. a transceiver selling for under $2K and still make

FWIW, I would note that Bob's example of a manufacturer's demolishing a building every ten years and moving on is driven by federal tax policy. That is true of so much of everyday business. This ain'

Thanks for the responses. Re the "1980s" design, I have an older ARRL handbook c. 2000 that goes into the design of the OMNI VI in quite a lot of detail, including the unique LO design. I knew it was
