[TenTec] How to Hear the Weak Ones,

[ron]

Hi Wayne!
I read your email with interest.
I too have issues with noise levels in my neighborhood. Some I have 
seeked out and destroy (smile) some I have yet to conquer.
May I point you and possibly others to Timewave. They appear to have a 
very effective method by simply phasing out the noise by using a 
external antenna. The unit is placed in series with your antenna (radio) 
and the unit uses a external antenna (either supplied or external).
I do not recall the model number but a simple google will solve that.
I think MFJ makes one equivelant to that.
I have used it during field day and found it to be remarkable.
When I have enough pennies, I plan to get one.
But first, I have that TT disease that causes addiction to Ten Tec 
radios. I am looking for a Omni V or Paragon (and also wud like to have 
the Delta, Orion, etc etc) smile
