[TenTec] Tentec roofing filters and Inrad filters for the Orion.

[Steve N4LQ]

Jason:
Having been all through that stuff maybe you could compile a list of
results. We would be interested in keys, antennas, rigs and maybe even
shoes, cars and lawn mowers. I used to play a sax but that was 40 years ago
in the marching band and upon graduation, I quickly sold the sax. Perhaps
with the right mouth piece I would still be playing? Be glad you are a cw op
because buying 20 of each microphone could get expensive! 73
