[TenTec] Trading Radio's

[Jim Allen]

Ahaaa!  I know that feeling.  After 55 years of this, I agree..... these
knobless radios are a new trick for us old dogs.  Let me make a
suggestion.... never buy a 706MKIIG, it's a button masher's paradise!  Heck
of a versatile radio, DC to daylight, all mode etc but the menus and
buttons make you keep the operating manual on your knee.

Thanks for that observation about the VII.  I have a VI opt 3 and a VI+
that I just bought, and like very much. Now I won't waste time salivating
about an "upgrade!"
