[TenTec] 2.041XT FW Follow-up

[w4wst at cox.net]

Hello everyone,
Just signed on and I find (as usual) about 25 e-mails, most of which are complaints about TENTEC or their products.
My suggestion would be to sell all your TENTEC gear and replace it with one of the perfect, problem free RICE BURNERS that are readily available and never have any problems of any kind. In the event you do have one of those rare problems with your more expensive JAPANESE JUNK, be assured the service you get from them will be so much better than TENTEC.
All of you need to get a life outside of ham radio and computer geeking.
73 to all from a very happy and satisfied O11 owner.
