Hello to the list, I am looking to upgrade my station which currently consists of a Argo V and a Kenwood TS-820. I'm going to keep the 820 for several reasons, but will probably trade off the Argo V.
The best bang for the buck is to find a used Pegasus for $500. Carl Moreschi N4PY 121 Little Bell Drive Hays, NC 28635 www.n4py.com _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list
As a former Pegasus owner I second the motion. In some ways a more enjoyable rig than my Omni VI, but not in all. Art, KØRO The best bang for the buck is to find a used Pegasus for $500. Carl Moresch
Pegasus over the Jupiter? _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/tentec
Well a Pegasus is pretty much the same animal, for less than your budget. I'm not sure you'd find a Jupiter for your budget. At least to me it's not worth $500 or so for the buttons, but that's me. A
Jerry, For $800, you have several options. If you are into SWL stuff, you'll probably want a rig with general coverage receive ability (Pegasus and Paragon I come to mind). If you are not interested
pegasus!! great rig, wish i never sold mine - it would be great if it had a real time panadapter. the N4PY software will do that, but you have to run the peg with a flex radio or some other SDR that
Thanks for all of the great advice! I found a Jupiter that fit my bill and my budget, and I didn't have to trade my Argo V (which I really do enjoy a lot)! Thanks again, Jeramy / W5XTL ______________

I nominate a clean Corsair II with matching external VFO for new DXers.... _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailma
I nominate my 12 gauge pump that I am going to use to shoot my POS Omni 6+ next time it starts randomly beeping on SSB :-) 73, Mike W4EF _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing
I got my FT-950 from Texas Towers and it is the best bang for the bucks :-) Walt K8CV Royal Oak, MI. _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://l
Let's swap. I'll give you my Omni-D which is incapable of beeping, and I'll take your blooper of a rig. That'll work! ;-) David Goncalves W1EUJ _______________________________________________ TenTec
I would go with the Corsair I or Omni V.9 on a cost/performance basis. 73 Chas W3KC _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.c
