[TenTec] Re: Future thoughts

[Ron Notarius WN3VAW]

OK, that did it.

The following was printed in my club newsletter shortly after the Pegasus FP
was renamed, and I take full responsibility (and blame) for it:

'As you know, Ten-Tec has come out with a new rig, the Jupiter (formerly
known as the Pegasus FP).
Naturally, their Engineering Department is already hard at work at the next
version of the rig.  What you may not have heard is that they had to scrap
the prototype and move on to the 3rd version of the rig.  Seems that after
the engineers added a "robotic voice" module for audio alerts, all they
heard out of the Jupiter II was:
"Warning! Warning! Danger, Will Robinson, Danger!"'

You can quit throwing things at me now.

...would replace the Jupiter/Peg.  I bet they'd sell a zillion of them.
