Winston,

I had a Triton II and it was a good radio.  After I had the Triton II, there
was an upgrade from a 4 pole filter to the 8 pole filter.  I remember
thinking that 75 meters was dead after getting the upgrade because the
filter was so sharp compared to the 4 pole.  Maybe that was the Triton III?
I do understand that Ten-Tec had to stop using the Triton name because
Motorola had a copyright on it as a transistor name and I guess the type of
product was too close in nature.

73,
John

Does anybody have an explanation why Ten-Tec had a Triton I, Triton II and
then a Triton IV, but no Triton III? Was it a prototype model that never
made it to market?
