All the Jupiters I've heard have the same raspy cw note as the Pegasus.
I could forgive it if it were a 40 year old tube rig not a new
product...TenTec needs to fix this but they probably won't since they knew
about the Pegasus and never did anything about it.

I QSOed a Jupiter user last week. He had just received a raspy note report
from another station. I confirmed it. He then began another QSO with
another TenTec user who gave him a clean report and informed him that
users of Jap rigs were just jealous and making the whole thing up. He
expressed relief that his rig was really clean and QRTed.

That's how it works folks. Most people can't hear.
