See http://www.telepostinc.com/LP-PAN.html --- it was referenced recently in the DXLab Suite Yahoo group. Available with different frequencies to accommodate major manufacturers IF standards including TenTec.
Seems to me to be an option / alternative to the more expensive TT board.

Hi Barry,

Yes, you're right. The K3 has a better sub receiver (for amateur band use) than the Orion or O II. I had forgotten about that, probably because all I ever use the sub receiver for, besides occasional general coverage listening, is spotting callers in pile-ups. I find the O II sub receiver perfectly adequate
for that, in my experience anyway.  I don't have a lot of strong locals to
deal with out here in the desert -- just one really, and his 160m key clicks are
so bad that nothing can get rid of him (hi).

Sub receiver strong-signal performance is more important in a contest
situation than for what I do, so once again I suspect that a contester's choice of
radio may be different than mine.

Tnx &  73,

Ray W2RS
