I'd like to see a refined Jupiter with an Orion Rx. No spectrum display or sub Rx. Bill K3UJ _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.con
Seconded! or I'd settle for a Jupe that had all the functionality of N4PY's software, in hardware, plus the IF gain control brought out to the front panel and a nice weighted tuning knob. Indeed I wo
Jerome: If you have a Jupiter now at least you can do something about the weighted tuning knob. Ten-Tec sells a knob option kit for the Jupiter. I think I paid like $26 for mine. You get a knob simil
Bill, I'd buy two of those! I'd like to see a refined Jupiter with an Orion Rx. No spectrum display or sub Rx. Bill K3UJ _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@con
Put a 100 W output or so brick on the back of the Argonaut V (call it the Argosy III ?), in roughly the same size box, market it as a mobile rig, and I'd find a way to buy one! 73 ___________________
sub Rx. Amen, amen, amen...did I say AMEN? A single RX with Orion's front end would be a killer contest/DX rig in the $2k range. Sayonara 756 and MP. Perhaps an old Omni VI with Inrad's new 600 Hz ro
Bill, the Omni VI+ manual says that the range of the sidetone is from 400 to 990 Hz. I'd like to add my voice to those calling for an "Omni VII". I'd even take a spectrum display if it didn't overloa
I would like to see Ten Tec move from serial to parallel processing in their SDR platform. I would also like to see implamentation of a high speed data link and move entirely away from 1975 technolog
Mike, I missed, by several weeks, the opportunity to buy, from TenTec, a factory-fresh Omni VI+ and opted for the Jupiter instead. I am very pleased with the Jupiter, my first software programmable r
While we're expanding the Orion line to an Orion Jr, I'd like to see an Orion Plus with an identically excellent receiver as the subreceiver. My second pipe dream would be for it to feature an intent

I've been plugging for this kind of extensible architecture myself, but let me play devil's advocate. jumping into a wilderness. In the extreme, your hardware might become just another PCI plug-in ca
Martin, Excellent points, some thoughts and comments in-line below. Duane N9DG There will have to be a strategic decision made on the radio manufacturers part. They can decide to either focus on hard
I do NOT agree and don't want a radio full of buses and plug-ins... at least not for my main contest or dx rig. (On the side, I'll take one of those radios with PCI too, but make it PCI-x - 64-bit).
The Ten-Tec rig I'd like to have. I was wondering and wondering and then Rick said it. I like the Century 22. Years ago a friend had one on his sailboat and I loved to go down below and pound out 20W
Or, the extreme re-designers should get together and start their own company and design (from scratch) a rig and sell it at a good price. least Ten-Tec receiver a ours). DX- _________________________

I didn't want to confuse anybody with the subtitles of the PCI specification so I stuck with using the generic PCI terminology. You might be technically correct but in this case you are so WRONG ;) -
Duane, you make several good points. Those of you who are tired of this thread, please delete it or filter it out. There are many of us who are enjoying it. Tnx. I guess if Ten-Tec or any other vendo
<SNIP> How about a modern update of the Atlas 210X/215X series design (ala Swan). Make it a single conversion radio like the venerable 210/215 with just a plain and highly stable VFO (digitally stabi
