[TenTec] 544 Triton IV

[Paul Gates, KD3JF]

Today I picked up a 544 and AC supply from a Systems  Administrator for one of the Congressmen in DC and I surely do love it. This may sound crazy but glad to have a 544 again. The receive audio is just what I like. This afternoon I worked 40, 20 and 75 tonight.

I heard a guy this afternoon in Traverse City, Michigan near where I used to live. He was on 40 and I was hearing him good but he never came back to me and then I realized I was hearing him through my dummy load!

I do not have the manual yet but would not be surprised if the SSB filter is about 2.7 or at least 2.4. It certainly sounds beautiful. CW sounds terrific... I have the 250hz filter so that should do me good.

A happy camper....
