[TenTec] Ten Tec Fan Disappointment....

[Kimberly Elmore]

I'm no TT apologist, but don't these companies have different business models? Aren't the Flex5000 and K3 more of an open-source sort of environment?

Having just read the post regarding the OMNI VII display board, it reminds me of my disappointment with TT.  I am a fan of their gear and own or have owned the Orion, Orion II, Omni VII,  and 238A, etc

They continue to miss published time windows on various upgrades, hardware and firmware.  Yes, I know there are priorities to deal with, but facts are facts.  It is discouraging to see Elecraft make improvements on such a timely basis, offer betas to their customers, and solicit customer input (and act on it).  

It's also interesting to see the very frequent dialogue by the owners on the Elecraft reflector.  I see very little input from TT here, except for their monthly used/demo equipment listing.  Something has changed there, and I'm sorry to see it.
