Good morning --

I've created a stock status page for current updates on transceiver 
firmware, products that are under development, etc.  

The page is now on our website at radio.tentec.com/status/

The Jupiter firmware release for the new version of the transceiver that 
we've been saying is imminent since Dayton is due out in the next 
several days.  I have been writing the manual update with the operating 
instructions over the last couple of weeks in between helping with the 
beta testing of the new firmware.

The Argonaut V is now discontinued.  There are a just a few new and demo 
units left in stock.  No further production is planned; we have no 
specific plans for a replacement model at this time.

As always, feel free to contact me if I can provide information on 
status on our current products or anything else regarding Ten-Tec.  
Email via sales at tentec.com or via the general office (865) 453-7172 or 
sales line (800) 833-7373 during usual business hours.

I understand the frustration with the delay in releasing updates about 
our products and that there has been a lot of conflicting information 
about what the status of these projects are.  I hope the status page 
will allow anyone interested in where we are on firmware or future 
announced products to find out instantly.

The RX-400 military receiver that has taken up virtually all of the 
engineering effort over the past 14 months is now finished and 
shipping.  We have substantial interest in this new product including 
non-movable delivery deadlines.   Now that we are only providing support 
for the RX-400 in production, we will have engineering resources 
available to work on both current and future products for Amateur Radio.

We will be attending hamfests at Huntsville, AL and Boxboro, MA the next 
two weekends.  Please come say hello.
