Hello All
Rob asked-----
Ken, just to know where you are coming from, have you owned any nonTT rigs
since 1980?
Well Rob, yes I have but I could not afford to buy the latest rigs in the 80's.
Before retiring from the Air Force in 1984 I could not afford anything that
was new, in fact all I could afford was something I could fix. It took 12
years to get my first new rig, the Omni VI Plus, that was in 1997. I had a
very hard time at Dayton in 1997, Kenwood had the TS-870 out and were offering
a very good price on them. I am a CW op, and from my Triton IV Digital I knew
what Ten-Tec did and worked. Best thing I did was buying the Omni VI Plus.
Since the Omni VI Plus I have bought everything Ten-Tec made new.
In the past I have owned the following--
Heathkit
Two HW-101's
1 SB-401/301
1 SB-401/303
1 SB-102
1 HW-5400
RX-1/TX-1 Twins
Others
Globe King 500C
Drake B-Line
Kenwood 599D Twins
Kenwood TS-130S
Kenwood TS-130V
What I did not put in my first post is I have the SG-2020 ADSP2, this is the
third 2020 and it is used on CW qrp.
Yes still a Ten-Tec Nut. Rob send me your e-mail address off line and I will
send a few pictures of the Radio Room.
