I wish I had bought one of the ten meter to two meter transverters. It
would have been the perfect mate for my Radio Shack HTX-100 10 meter
SSB/CW transceiver, which never gets any use these days.
I understand that Ten Tec discontinued the transceivers due to parts
availability problems.
The "Microwave Modules" line was also nice. I have one of their 2 m
converters.

I really liked my 1208 transverter. I used it with my Argonaut II, and
worked all continents with 8 watts during the last F2 peak feeding a
Hy-Gain 4 element beam at 50 feet. I gave it to a friend to get him on
6 meters and built an Elecraft transverter. I have not noticed much of
an improvement in performance with the much more expensive Elecraft
unit, and it also has been a bear to get some bugs worked out of it. I
wish Ten Tec still made these transverters. They were certainly hard to
beat at the price.
