[TenTec] Why is the Jupiter better?

["Bob Scott" <w4zy@bobandpenny.us>]

I can get an Icom IC-746 Pro for $1300 including power supply and
microphone.  It looks like it has the same features as the Jupiter plus I
get 6M and 2M.  A Jupiter will cost me almost $1700 if I get the external
fan and some sort of tuner (internal or external) and power supply.  The
microphone is free for awhile.

I want to support Ten-Tec as it is an American company and I grew up with
Knight-Kits and Heathkits, but is the Jupiter that superior to other rigs in
its class?
