I certainly am VERY pleased with Ten-Tec and their continuing efforts to =
update the firmware for rigs that we have paid for in full. Meaning =
that if they were like the "other" companies - they would be spending =
time working on a new RADIO rather than "worrying" about what has =
already been sold! Ten-Tec obviously cares about "us" and we should =
keep this fact in mind - especially when expressing displeasure. Please =
do not misunderstand me. I am NOT saying that we can not express =
displeasure JUST that we should think about what we are saying before we =
hit "send". =20
I am very pleased with my Jupiter and the fact that I can update the =
rig with new features as they are released. The "bugs" are but a minor =
inconvenience as one can always go back to a previous version until the =
pest control guys have a chance to fumigate the newer version. =20
There is one firmware update that I am very much looking forward to =
- - - The one that increases the physical volume, and changes the color, =
of my Jupiter. This update also changes the name on the front panel to =
"ORION" :-)
This is all just my humble opinion. I have had various Yaecomwoods =
and did NOT like the feeling I got when I opened the newest "QST" and =
saw a new model coming out AND noticed that "my" rig now cost $250.00 =
less than I recently paid for it! =20
Thanks Ten-Tec! Good Night and 73 to all; Bill
