[TenTec] Argosy 525 question

[Mike Hyder -N4NT-]

I believe that the Argosy was sold before the 10MHz band was fully 
authorized so Ten-Tec sold it without the crystal for the band. As soon as 
it was OK, they sold the crystal.

Oh?  That's very, very odd.

The Argosy ALWAYS had 30 meters... it was 12 & 17 that didn't come with it
(as those bands were not available at the time the rig was offered for sale)

This makes me wonder if a previous owner made some mods to the rig you have.

I recently advertised looking for an oldie goodie Argosy. It arrived
and turns out to not have 30m. I suppose it is
a really early rig (S/N 525-0928). As I have not bee following Tentec
gear for nearly that long, I wonder if there is or ever
was a mod to add 30m to this old classic Argosy.
