Good afternoon everyone, I have been out of touch for the last several months working on a project and have not kept up with TenTec news. I am considering purchasing a new transceiver this spring. An
I bet there will be a new rig in sept. at the hamfest. Good afternoon everyone, I have been out of touch for the last several months working on a project and have not kept up with TenTec news. I am c
Tom, The Elecraft K3 is an incredible radio at a fair price point. You can "accessorize" it to suit your wallet. With the panadaptor and filter choices You should be able to improve on your present O
Clarification: I will say that after moving from the OMNI-VI+ to the K3, I still cannot bring myself to sell the OMNI-VI+. It is a wonderful radio and a keeper along side the K3. 73 Bill N4LG _______
How do you like the Elecraft after the Omni six plus? Best regards - Bry Carling _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/
Sorry. Agree with everything you say except the K3 is a lateral move and best be sure K3 ergonomics will be suitable to you. I have done a serious amount of operating on both platforms. 73, Barry N1E

Bill, I know this is a tough question and maybe not a fair one to ask. If you had to choose between the K3 and the Omni VII, could you make a choice? I am returning to ham radio after a long absence,

I have all the current TENTEC radios (including the QRION) and I have 2)K3s and a KX3. Some people like vanilla others like chocolate. Both are wonderful flavors George, W6GF On Friday, April 4,

Tom, I was interested in the Sienna at the time I bought my K3 but couldn't find any information on it. I don't hold much for the BS written in eham. Most of the guys who post there wouldn't know a r
I would inject a used Orion or Orion II into the purchasing choices. Perhaps the best buys on the ham market today. 73, Barry N1EU _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list
Rick, Thank you for the nice response and its exactly what I needed. Sure appreciate your reply. I suspect I will mostly enjoy talking to hams again and getting back up to speed on what has happened
Speaking only for myself, and take this for whatever it's worth... A friend of mine at one point owned an Omni VI+ and a K3. He later added an Omni VII to the operating collection. He used all three
Bry, let me put it this way... If I was going on a trip or a DXpedition, where size and weight of the radio was a major consideration (such as air travel restrictions on luggage), I would probably ta
Tom, I'm sure that if you decide to part with the S-Line, one of the gang in the Collins Collectors Association will be more than happy to help you get it to a new home. (Personally, I wouldn't mind
I know some hams dwell on the radio with the best specs listed on someones web site. I tend to leave that arguement to the engeineers in the group but read with interest. I have but one interest in h
The PROBLEM with the Eagle is, it is not very popular, in general. If you are going alone, it's great. But if you are going on an expedition with 20 other guys, you need to take rigs that people are
