[TenTec] September QST Ad

[Rick - DJ0IP / NJ0IP]

Could it be he's using the Mic's PTT button to key CW?

OK, so look a bit more closely. The mode on the screen to the right of the frequency is definitely CW. So now where's the mistake. Also looks like the bandwidth is at 500 or 600 Hz (My old eyes can't tell the difference). 



Details, boys, details.

Here's what I found interesting: Several months ago, Ten Tec ads used to be loaded with spelling and punctuation errors, like using an apostrophe for plurals ("The menu's are..."). The complainer on qrz.com didn't seem to mind that. (I sent Ten Tec an email and said that, in view of how elegant their products are, they should at least hire a proof reader for their ad copy. Errors like that don't inspire confidence. Since then, their ads have been perfect.) 

 The other thing I noticed is that the complainer proclaims that he has been a follower of the Urantia book (unless I'm misreading his qrz page). I can't imaging that anyone who falls for that would be capable of much critical thinking. But that's just my take.

 I don't know if anyone else on this reflector spends any time on the www.qrz.com forums. But it seems that one of the forum moderators took note of the September QST ad for the Eagle, and has started having a little bit of fun with it. What's the problem? The radio as pictured is tuned to 14.060... and there's a hand mike shown, but no key. Obviously a BIG mistake... right. But see for yourselves, if you're interested... http://forums.qrz.com/showthread.php?310389-Ten-Tec-Ad-in-September-QST 73, ron w3wn
