[TenTec] Anyone compared a Ten Tec Eagle to the Icom 7000?

[Richards]

I like the new rig, but have not been able to compare it directly to an 
Eagle.   It was a very difficult decision.   My Omni VII was in the shop 
at the time, and I wanted a "backup" rig, and this one had the most 
features, like a receive-only antenna input, and some other goodies that 
made the difference between it and the Eagle.   Performance specs were 
very close, so the choice came down to minor features and the fact I 
wanted something else, so that all my eggs were not all in the same 
manufacturer's basket.  Lots of little reasons, nothing major.  Works 
differently from my Omni VII so it is a real learning experience.

I will be keeping my Omni VII ...

Happy Trails.
