[TenTec] Just an observation

Tnx, Perry.  I don't know about that legend stuff.  Lots of hams copied 
Sputnik, etc. but I was one of those who got written up in the press.  You're 
right about those being different times.   The USA was crying in its beer 
about Sputnik, Yuri Gagarin, etc.,and rightly or wrongly, poor science 
education was blamed.  Our kids can't keep with theirs, it was said.  So, along came 
these ham teenagers who actually did something, and the press had a field 
day for a week or so.  Fun while it lasted.
