[TenTec] OT: Looking for good starter HF transceiver

[Carl Winkles]

Rick I think it would be good for the list to know that Hans will be operating a Paragon. There are members who can seriously advise about digital modes with a Paragon. I certainly cannot. 

Anyway I'm sure he will like it. 

Thanks. 

Carl, K4SEV
