[TenTec] Paragon vs Paragon II

[Steve Ellington]

The original Paragon used a standard 9v battery to retain memory and tended
not to last very long. The P2 used a more modern disc type battery and
seldom needed changing. The P1 was known for PLL unlocking problems. This
was cured in the P2. I think the price difference is worth it.
