Paul:
Your dating of the Century 22 and Argosy is slightly out
of sequence. After reading your comments, I checked into
my TenTec archive file and came up with a Price List dated
1/1/83. It lists the Argosy II (525D) but not the Century
series (21 or 22). A Price List dated 7/01/86 lists the Century
22 but not the Argosy series.
Also, the Argosy II brochure I have does not show the WARC
bands on the transceiver.
I believe the original Argosy was a 70's product.
