[TenTec] new radio

[d.e.warnick at comcast.net]

No, John, no. Not yet. I just got my Orion II in the past 2 months. Not ready yet. 



Seriously, TenTec has a very competitive lineup of radios that can do it all. And, I am amazed that no matter what the complexity, their front panel is well engineered. The Orion II is easy to understand (yeah, there is still a lot to learn) and every conmtrol as well as the digital display makes sense to me. It was very easy to get up and running the first day. Same was true with my Omni VII. 



My wish for a new product? A full house legal limit amp. Dare I say solid state, no tune and follows the band changes on the two rigs mentioned above. Tall order, yes, but not all in the shack is transcievers. Love my Herc IIs, but want MORE, MORE, MORE!!!!!

I am still waiting however for the New Ten Tec Battle ship of a radio 
which will allow me to up grade from my Orion II .  Just like big radios 
at the house .  John kb2huk
