There are discussions ongoing on the Ten-Tec reflectors on both yahoo groups and contesting.com about the noise blankers of the Triton IV, the Omni A/B/C, and the Corsairs. While noise blankers are b
Ham A: "You are 15 Hz off frequency." Ham B: "What frequency am I on?" Ham A: "3810.015 kHz." Ham B: "That's odd, I called CQ on 3810.015 kHz and I am still transmitting on 3810.015 kHz. Must be your
Jim, Firstly, I am not an expert on the Omni VI. But I wonder if the signal you are hearing on the Omni VI frequency is not entirely what is being transmitted. Even very weak signals can be strong on
I'm am also happy to see more products being developed for the amateur radio marketplace. Wow, I am amazed to see the negative comments generated by only a couple of computer generated images of a ra

It makes no sense for RF Concepts to purchase Ten-Tec, liquidate their stock and assets, and shut down the business. When RF Concepts purchased Alpha, they reduced prices. Same tactic again? At those

I've been thinking about this idea of a bigger form factor for the Eagle, the ensuing discussion, and thought I would post my wish list. Perhaps if others join in with their wish lists, John Henry an
It took a very long time for Rob Sherwood's judgements to take hold and for real change to happen. The fact that some manufacturers are taking steps to improve the cleanliness of transmitters is enco
There are so many things to consider when one chooses a radio. I went through this recently. In my case I wanted the brand, form factor, and ergonomics of the Kenwood TS-590S, the continued developme

I disagree. The comparison is quite valid as it depends on the criteria you are comparing. In my case my shortlist of rigs was the K3, Eagle, and TS-590S. I chose the Eagle. Since then the K3S and TS
Rick, I agree with most of your suggestions. My comments: 1) SIZE - The size of the box and number of controls are directly related to the cost of the radio. Controls are expensive. So be prepared fo
This is Icom's first try with a direct sampling radio and from everything I have read, they seem to have done a lot of things right and have produced a good product. Yes, it does have some issues and
