Wow!  The NR function is sweet.  I'm listening to the FARM net 3.937 Mhz and
the static crashes are approaching S-9, NR set to 3, AGC set to slow, BW @
2400 Hz, and 12 dB of ATTN and there is absolutely no noise when hearing the
transmission.  The audio distortion is very low.  Really nice.  Hmmm, I
wonder if anyone else has this positive experience?  I wonder how many
programmers Ten Tec had to hire to get this result?

Well, the noise reduction NR works a bit different as in a weak CW signal
jumps up in clarity and SSB speach does not seem to be degraded much.  NR,
NB, Notch, and AN don't seem to lock up the radio in different settings.
monitor works in various modes.  I'm not hearing the clickity clack in the
Sennheiser HD 202 phones that used to be there, although I still hear a
slight click which is unperciptable in the Radio Shack Titanium phones.  All
good, no bad so far.

Enough testing for me... I'll wait on the more critical reporters.

Wow...talk about timing...I was just on the site about 20 minutes ago and it
wasn't there, but now it is!  I won't be able to try it out until I get home
tomorrow night, but I'll be looking forward to running it this weekend!
