Hi gang, I'm new to the Ten Tec list. I joined as I need
to replace my only rig (a Heath HW-16 that has lost too
many electrolytics I cant't replace), and I am considering
a Ten Tec for the quality and available service.
I am considering buying a used Century 21 or 22 from Ten
Tec through their used service. That appears to be all
I can afford. Some questions:
Go with the 22 or is a 21 okay?
If a 21, digital or analog (I've heard of dial cord stretching,
etc., problems with the analog)?
Are the Century's DC or superhet? If DC, is the filtering
good to help with cutting double signal?
40m will be my main band. Are the Century's selective and
sensitive enough to deal with today's 40m band?
Answers to these and any other information welcome.
Thanks. Cheers/73. Kevin, KB9IUA
