[TenTec] Jupiter Information Request

[John]

Clayton,

I also have an older Jupiter.  How hard was the conversion from green to 
blue?  I also have the Argonaut VI for summer playtime. That has a 
better receiver but not a lot better.  It does have a nice screen 
though.   I am tempted to buy or make a 100 W amplifier for playtime at 
home.

73,

2013 11:30 PM Subject: [TenTec] Jupiter Information Request I'm thinking 
about buying a Jupiter and am wondering what the pros and cons of the 
radio might be? I primarily operate low-band CW 90% of the time. Any 
information would be greatly appreciated. also, what's a good price for 
a Jupiter in good to excellent condition? Tnx es 73, Dave N8AG
