[TenTec] Re: An example of changing Orion firmware to meetexpectationsof

[Ron Martin]

Please read Barry's text, second to last paragraph.  I answered a question 
....

Please read my response, first line, Duane.  I agreed with Barry's point. 

Being an engineering manager, one of the points that I have learned in this 
business is to make requirements as clear as possible......  Actually, I 
would like to have the choice of just transferring frequency and mode 
included.  So, everyone can not be satisfied all the time...... 

Have a Good Day Duane.
