[TenTec] IC-7800 Expanded Test Report

[ac5e at comcast.net]

While I don't bemoan the QST staff writers failure to get to the point, I hate it when a died in the wool "ain't nothing like my brand" rig owner is given the latest from "his brand" to test.  Testing quickly becomes propaganda and straying from the point may well prevent too many coats of gilding on that lily.  
So a well written and scrupulously fair rig comparison would be a worthy project.  I can't say what would happen at League HQ but you can bet that such a piece of work would excite a lot of interest. Particularly in the advertising department. If QST could not accept such an article, perhaps CQ would risk their advertisers wrath. Or do like others have done with beam and vertical antennas, and sell it for ten bucks or so a copy. As a last resort, you could always post it on the internet.
