[TenTec] Jupiter vs other rigs in same price range

[Charles Greene]

Hi,

Our club is considering buying a Jupiter.  I have never seen one, let alone 
operated one.  We plan to get and show the company video on it.  Other rigs 
under consideration are an ICOM 746PRO and a K2/100.  Important features 
are the ability of new/non-technical hams to operate, performance in field 
day or a field day type environment with another rig on adjacent bands, 
filters,  DPS NR and ability to operate CW (preferably QSK), phone and 
digital.  I have a K2/100 and borrowed a IC746PRO to set it aside the 
K2/100 and do an A/B comparison.  I know spec wise, the K2 has the best 
receiver in most things important, but specs aren't all the game.  I used 
my K2/100 on last field day, and other operators had no problems with most 
things, but DSP was not one of them; too hard to operate its DSP NR.  The 
previous two years, I used my OMNI-VI for field day, but it had some 
problems in the field day environment.  You couldn't read the dial in 
sunlight for one.

How does the Jupiter stack up against the two aforementioned rigs?
