[TenTec] Delta II -- Good/Bad

[d.e.warnick at comcast.net]

If you want something a bit smaller that fits under the dash for mobile, it's OK. Otherwise, the Omni D or C, Corsair or Omni VI+ will blow it away

The Delta II is one of my favorite Ten-Tec rigs. Some people don't like the strange AGC and you have to fix the backlight. But once you learn how to use the Jones filter and PBT together it works real well, and it sounds a lot nicer with an external speaker. However, its performance is not equal to your Omni VI+ so don't expect that.

I've read the 8 reviews on eham, so I'll pose this to those of you who have 
he rig and use it on a regular basis: Why should I own this rig? 
Let me re-phrase that: Considering the rigs Omni VI and older, is there a 
eason to own this rig, versus say an Omni VI, a Corsair, an Omni C, or the 
riginal Delta, other than the general coverage receiver? Anything "special" 
r "classic" about this rig? Was this a "gem" despite the QST review? 
I wanna hear it from the folks that own them now, or owned them and sold 
hem...  not second hand. (I have a VI+, OmniC, Argosy, Scout, and a couple 
f Yaesiconwood rigs with general coverage RX's, btw.)
