[TenTec] Ad in AES Catalog...

[ac5e at comcast.net]

One thing that is perhaps missed in discussing all the new "world beater" radios coming out in the future is the increased headroom it gives potential competitors, both present and future. 

It's a whole lot easier to justify buying an $8,000 radio when the competition goes for upwards of $11,000. It's even easier to justify developing an $8K radio when the competition has proven there's a good market for $12K radios. 

We all had our wishing wand in action when Ten Tec announced the Orion. We didn't get everything we wished for - but given a proven market in those rarified desmenes we could come closer to getting our wish card completely checked.
