[TenTec] Here we go again

[Rob Atkinson, K5UJ]

KD7EFQ, at the end of October you posted questions asking about the INRAD 
filters, audio mod etc.  You have apparently elected not to do any of that 
and are now asking about an outboard audio improvement method.  Having 
rejected (it seems) the INRAD method, you are now lashing out at people with 
wider filters.  Yet you seem to advocate dsb carrier AM operating which is 
even wider than any SSB transmission.   This nonsequitur makes you appear to 
not be rational on this.
Criticizing people who have undertaken a legitimate modification method 
merely because you have decided against it for yourself does not seem to be 
reasonable to me.

I have tried to understand the obvious resentment towards enhanced fidelity 
SSB operators and have had to conclude there are some in the hobby who 
desire it to remain in a static circa ~1970 form:   Most hams on HF 
operating 2.1 khz SSB, and CW with a little RTTY and 2 m. FM as exotic 
modes.  Novice, Techs, Generals, Conditionals, Advanced and Extras.   No 
digital modes, Echolink, SO2R and so on allowed.  Hence the kneejerk attacks 
on anything new such as the AOR HF digital voice box.  I, also wish some 
things had not changed, but the hobby evolves.  Accept it.
