 With refreshing and ergonomic changes many more years could be had.


        Why consider this is the end of the world?
        Why talk bout the Orion II as the paradigm
        or pinnacle of success?
        
        Perhaps TenTec will create a better radio
        if it starts from scratch.  It may produce
        another rig, on a different platform, which
        will be more refreshing and more ergonomic
        than a touched up Orion II.

        I trust TenTec knows what it is doing, and
        anticipate it will announce fresh new designs
        as soon as possible, even though I don't know
        when it will be possible.

        


Yes, parts could be an issue, but even that can be overcome.

        Why doubt TenTec's decision that it is
        either impossible or not worth doing?

        WE do not know what parts are involved?
        
        WE do not know whether or not a cost
        effective work around is feasible or even
        worth doing.

        Your statement implies TenTec CAN as well
        as SHOULD overcome the parts problem.  Maybe
        we should trust them and have faith the
        decision is for the best.  Let's have a
        little more faith in the team, eh?  Do you
        give up on your favorite pro ball team
        when the going gets tough?  I don't.  I
        assume any trades, terminations, acquisitions,
        etc., are made rationally and for the best.
        I would hope all of us could stop being
        worried and just hope for the best.





I would be a buyer,
        

        Of what?  Unless TT drops the O II and
        produces another rig, you already own
        the cream of the crop and have the whole
        line up.   I would think you would rather
        TT produce go in a new direction and
        produce something new, than merely maintain
        the status quo, or produce a refreshed or
        updated same-ol' same-ol' radio that is
        getting long in the tooth.

        No... I see this as an OPPORTUNITY, rather
        than a problem.



but I am afraid Ten Tec is becoming to introverted and showing a diminishing lack of new product development talent.

        

        I don't knock any team I am on.  Why not
        trust they are doing their level best and
        why not assume it is all for the good?  Why
        not just stand by and see what comes next,
        instead of expecting the worst?

        I play a lot of basketball, and this is not
        the sort of negative team spirit I want
        on my team.     

        I prefer to think this is a step in a
        great new direction.
        


I hope I am wrong.<br/><br/>


        I don't need to hope I am wrong...
        
        Instead, I prefer to think "positive"
        and hope I am right !
