[TenTec] Jupiter Upgrades

[Lee WA3FIY]

Ooooops.............!

In my earlier post on this subject, toward the end I launch into Ten-Tec selling the internal 
autotuner.     I should have introduced that subject earlier by suggesting that if the Jupiter 
does not have the 'tuner, that might be a desirable option.  They are very good tuners and 
make using the radio a delightful experience.   I use a OCF dipole and can go anywhere on 
any HF band at the push of a ("TUNE") button.    I'm getting lazy in my old age I guess.   :-)

Maybe now my comment about the tuner will make more sense....I hope.   :-)

73 again,
