[TenTec] Band Scopes

[Rsoifer at aol.com]

Thanks, Charles.  That's helpful info, to me anyway.  I consider myself a 
serious DXer but, these days, only a casual contester (I fool around in them, 
generally S&P style, for a few hours at a time but usually don't send in a log).  


It seems that the equipment needs of DXers and serious contesters aren't 
always the same.  Things like high-resolution, real time spectrum scopes and CW 
Skimmer support are more important in contesting than DXing.  Maybe 
manufacturers should consider offering two versions of their top-of-the-line, high 
performance rigs, one for each group?

Just a thought.
