Given the extensive list of bad things said about all of the controls 
(mushy), the "homebrew" build quality,  lack of a zillion meter scales 
on the meter, the fact that T-T has not incorporated all of this 
authors (and all of the other) herbal improvement in the soup, the 
lack of "normal" functions, lack of a built-in power supply, 
complaints about the material of the ground nut, and on and on, I'm 
surprised the author has kept his crummy radio .. heck, I'm 
surprised anyone who has bought one of these awful amateurish 
radios has kept it  :-)

Hey, I did find -- to be balanced -- one or two positive comments

Besides -- as the opening remark says, any one who is a "casual" 
ham or is a member of the Ten-tec "cult" probably isn't qualified to 
fully understand all of the points contained in the review.
