[TenTec] [Orion] FT9000 ETR available

[Byron J. Watts]

hehe, in america marketing is more important than anythign else (so i've 
noted at least..) the big companies can afford to market their "big" 
radios and that's all that matters.  I must say though tentec does 
market theirs farily well.. and they also seem to ~work~ fairly well... 
that's a plus :)
