[TenTec] Ten Tec and Years End Thoughts

[Tommy]

Deer Geezer (sic),

It may be gonna get a rest soon. There are several hams who have the 
same Orion/amp problem that may have hit up a completely illogical 
'fix' for the problem. Some are testing it now and it looks like it 
is working for them. As soon as I get my Titan 3 back from Ten Tec, 
I'm gonna do the same and just hope it works.
