[TenTec] K3 information

[Reed O. Krenn]

Since we are now encouraged to discuss other products, does anyone have 
an update on the status of Computeradio and the Dream Radio 1? Their 
website's most recent update was in 2004.

If memory serves, this was THE product that was going to herald a new 
era of amateur radio equipment design, leaving all others in its wake.

Ten Tec and Elecraft and ALL other amateur radio manufacturers were 
destined for the scrap heap of history........

Just wondering.................
