[TenTec] new RX366 sub receiver

[Rick - DJ0IP / NJ0IP]

"Diversity Receive"

I haven't read or heard that it is not a field upgrade.  
I don't believe the price is available yet.
Do you have inside information Walt, or is it just speculation?

However, since I'm not interested in diversity receive, or even a second RX
inside my transceiver for that matter, I don't believe I'd be interested
either, but that's just me.  I'm sure there are those who are, and I'm sure
it will be a lot cheaper to upgrade than to buy a new transceiver.

What I hope comes of this effort eventually, is a stand-alone Eagle
(matching) RX.
Seems like an easy enough project.
Then Carl can make them "swing together".

Why would anyone want a good second receiver? All I ever use it for is 
transmit in split mode! Maybe SO2R in contesting? You would have to send 
your Orion 2 back to TT for the refit and it would cost you as much with 
labor as a new Orion 3 with it built in. Not a viable solution for THIS HAM
