[TenTec] The Eagle

Probably the most significant way to sway TS-590 purchasers over to the 
Eagle is to include a 9 MHz I.F. port for use with LP-PAN, SDR-IQ, or QS1R 
as a panadapter and second Rx.  For the minimal manufacturing effort, I just 
cannot see how this one significant feature could be overlooked with the 
full production unit.  At the very least, a panel hole for a BNC jack should 
be provided for those that want to add their own I.F. buffer, like that 
manufactured and sold by Jack Smith at Clifton Labs.
