[TenTec] (no subject)

[Rick - DJ0IP / NJ0IP]

There's been a lot of speculation.
Here's my own wild guess.

TT is a relatively small company, especially if you just look at their ham
radio business.
The tool up their line and produce just one kind of radio for a specific
length of time.  Perhaps a few weeks.
Then they retool their line and produce another radio.
Then they retool and reproduce the next, etc.

If business peaks on any particular radio which is not currently in the
production run, it's going to be a while until these radios are back in
stock.

So my guess is, marketing's crystal ball may need re-calibrating, but their
business is still healthy.

It appears that Ten Tec wants to go out of business.  On their web site they
have been out of stock on the Omni 7 for over a month and now they are out
of stock on the Eagle with a tuner.  They are forcing hams to buy rice
boxes.
