[TenTec] Re:IC-707 vs. DX-70

[Winston F. Jones]

I think we Ten-Tec users should be more friendly to the person who 
wondered onto this reflector, asking about comparisons between the Icom 
IC-706 and the Alinco DX-70.

I'd suggest he also think about the Ten-Tec Scout. While it only runs 
50 watts output, it's the ideal mobile rig since it has few controls to 
distract you while on the road and a very large digital readout. The 
variable Jones filter is also simple to use and great for cutting out 
adjacent QRM. It's one little knob, not a lot of confusing bells and 
whistles.

I'm in the process of installing my Scout mobile. It takes up very 
little room and has great sound. I love my Scout!

I'm also happy that Ten-Tec's friendly service department is readily 
available. I think we should show the unfortunate riceaholics that 
Ten-Tec users are friendly and we're ready to help them "kick the rice 
box habit."

73, Winston K4CWQ
