[TenTec] mike

[Bob McGraw - K4TAX]

I have 2 of the 709's.   They too get "great audio" reports...... but with 
different radio settings than used with the 707 on the Omni VII.  Typically 
I have one 709 on the Argonaut VI and the other 709 on the Eagle when it's 
not being used mobile or in the travel trailer.

73
Bob, K4TAX
