Since it's now almost December and there's no indication that this board 
is going be produced by the time Dayton rolls around in 2009, I thought 
I'd bring this old message back up to the top again.  In my book, this 
is not a good mark on the Ten-Tec record.  -- 73 de N8VZ

Thanks, Mike. If this is not an old, not-updated post, I was lied to at 
Dayton.  I was shown a prototype board and was told it was ready for 
production.  In fact, I was told that the week after Dayton they would 
be having a production meeting and that the board would be ready for 
general sales within three months or so.  A friend of mine who bought an 
ORION II about three years ago was told at that time that the board 
would be ready "in a few months."  He's ready to ditch his Ten-Ten 
equipment he is so mad about this issue.  When I gave him the 
information from Dayton, including my live sitting of the prototype 
board, he calmed down a little and said he'd give Ten-Tec a few more 
months.  In short, I hope what I was told at Dayton is more accurate 
than this link.  Perhaps, at this juncture Ten-Tec's recent "sins" are 
no more than not updating a web page! :-)
