[TenTec] Just an observation

[James Boswell]

Hello,

    The Socorro NM. club anchored their Field Day with my TT Corsair II and Corsair. We tried my IC-7200 but could not get the keyer to work. Another vote for some good old radios. Simple to use and always work.

Hi guys -  Just a brief observation...  Stopped out to the local radio 
club Field Day site... and lo and behold ... they had three big rigs set 
up.   A Yaesu FT-10000,  an TEN-TEC ORION II, AND A TT OMNI VI - the two 
TEN-TEC stations were complete with TT power supplies, speakers, a TT 
tuner, and the like.   Man it was a beautiful site...I mean sight... 
either way works I guess, but it was a proud day.

One of the guys complained the Orion II sounded like crap.  I told him 
you cannot set it up like a Yae-com-wood.  They said somebody who did 
not know the rig had messed around with the menu settings and had it 
sounding funny.   I recommended they do a refresh re-boot and restore 
the factory default settings, and start over - rather than debug what 
they had done.  Hope this was good advice...

We use an Orion II,  a pair of Omni VIIs, and an Omni VI at our contest 
station... and nobody every complains.

But it looked seeing all that TT gear out there !

Happy trails and good DX to ya.
