Absolutely! We wouldn't want our GI's to buy import radios. Ten Tec
wants to be patriotic and give the military priority, plus they have to
pay the bills, and its no doubt a lucrative contract. We should be
honored that the military chose our favorite radio company over the big
dogs like Rockwell-Collins and Harris.
Cut Ten-Tec some slack.
(Guess I'm spoiled. I have a Paragon, Corsair, and Scout, none of which
need software updates, though I'm toying with the idea of a Giehl chip).

I think most longer time hams understand a company's bread and butter is
from commercial and DOD projects, and not the smaller market hams
represent. I will be happy to standby while Uncle gets their new radio
first before Jupiter plus.
