[TenTec] Stripping working Rigs for parts

[Pfizenmayer]

Beats me why TT offers us nothing for EXTRA (beyond that sold with the rig 
as standard) filters and in fact tells us to take them out - I vote - NO 
WEASEL -

PS - Since my O II appears to be a keeper - I will have for sale a 600 hz 
Inrad and TT 250 hz filter one of these days before long.
