I can't speak for Ten Tec, but I fail to see how the preferences of a 
few (or a few dozen, for that matter) can be equated as the universal 
preference of the many hundreds or thousands of satisfied Omni 6 owners 
who utilize stock TT filters. I, for one, am satisfied with the 
performance of my various TT filters and the steep skirt selectivity 
exhibited, which, I might add, seems to far exceed what I've seen in 
Kenwood and Icom rigs I've owned. That's not to say I wouldn't entertain 
considering Inrad filters in the future. But, so far, I feel no need as 
a CW and SSB operator, to change out my TT filters. I suspect the silent 
majority who simply follow this reflector, but who choose not to 
respond, may feel the same way. My 2.1 cents, if you will.
