[TenTec] Triton IV vers Corsair II

[Joe L Blackwell]

de Joe, AA4NN
I notice the same here with my Corsair II and Triton IV (540).  While I
am CW
only, the triton just seems to have a wider "window" and it's just a
pleasure
to switch back and forth with the rigs to hear the difference.  I don't
know why.
