[TenTec] 6M with HF - WAS: ARRL

[Mike K9MI]

I forget, but you are probably right on the Kachina John. And the Kenwood 
870, I know was on the market before the 756 Pro. Having no experience with 
any of them I don't know which is supposed to be better. Unless my memory is 
worse then I think it is, the 870 came out before the 756 Pro.

73 - Mike K9MI
