[TenTec] Omni VI+ classic

[NJ0IP]

Richy,

Clark's a straight shooter and your comment is OUT OF LINE!

I feel you owe Clark an apology.

TS-850: Currently, the absolute world record (all time high score - highest
ever) for both cw and ssb in CQ WW DX contest, is held by a European club
that used exclusively TS-850's.  That was set 4 years ago.

Now I wouldn't have a TS-850 on a bet (I'm true blue Ten-Tec), but I think
its obvious that your radio was broken.  That's what Clark was trying to
point out to you.

So be a sport and apologize to him.

73
Rick

   Hey Ben,  Tnx for the reply.. Please read the next guys comment to me on
the reflector, its like I raped his wife or something.. He was highly
insulted that I said the 850 is a cement mixer... He should open up both
ears so the shit can flow out evenly and then he will hear what we know to
be the truth... Regards.. Richy N2ZD
