[TenTec] Ten Tec and Years End Thoughts

[Tommy]

In other words Toby, what YOU would like to read on this reflector, 
is postings ONLY from hams who are willing to spend 3500 bucks and 
be happy with a product that does not work the way it's advertised 
to work? Good for you Toby...I sure hope your Delete key works.

There have been only a handful of hams on this list that dont care 
for the
Orion, and its a shame that possible future purchasers of the Orion 
are basing
their decision not to buy on the negative remarks of 4 or 5  hams.

After thinking about this comment that John wrote I am all the more 
aware that it is to a great extent the truth.  It seems as though 
over the last year that the repeated posts of a few disgruntled 
purchasers seem to cloud the truth that the majority of Orion owners 
are perfectly  happy with their purchase.  These happy owners of the 
Orion do not post much and many do not post at all.  I personally 
know several that never post and are very pleased with the Orion.

If one would base their decison to purchase  an Orion based on the 
comments here on the reflector,  they would porbably never ever 
purchase one.  It is interesting to hear about the problems of the 
unfortunate few who are unhappy, but some of us may be getting 
getting a bit weary of hearing the repeated posts of the same people 
who are unhappy with the Orion  for whatever reason.

WE have a new year coming up and maybe things will change for the 
good.  If you are planning on purchasing a new Orion, talk to guys 
who like the Orion as well as those who don't , and then make your 
decision based on numerous interviews, and not a vocal unhappy 
minority who post here a lot. ......really a lot!

Merry Christmas to all!      Toby W4CAK
