Hello..
I'm new to the Ten-Tec ranks. Never having owned
any of their radios. However, after reading
the write up in QST for the Jupiter, I was given one
for my 55 birthday!
It's good to leave QST about the house :-)
and hints of course.
Anyway, the DSP is very nice and a joy to use.
In CW you have the option to change the tone,
change the Bandwidth and Pass Band Tuning.
Has a nice "Spot" button too.
I'm learning all of features and flavor.
Heck.. I was surprise when I called
Ten-Tec and asked them about MARS modification.
They send me chip to install.. FREE!
I'm sold.. the reason for subscribing to this list.
Hope this helps a bit. Not a very good answer
to your comparison.
Oh.. prior radio is kwm-2a.
