[TenTec] Ten-Tec service

[Bwana Bob]

It also seems ominous to me that the kit line has been cut back and 
Ten-Tec is no longer providing its own power supplies or matching 
speakers. The two power supplies shown on the web site are the Astron 
brand. It looks like a major consolidation.

The amps are expensive, the wonderful ORION is gone, the OMNI Vll is pricey.  The Eagle is great, I have two, but it is not enough.  I have a new Argo and a KX3 (Elecraft), as far as comparing the two radios.....enough said.
