[TenTec] Fw: HAPPY 4TH ANNIVERSARY TEN-TEC NETS

[José Félix Ballester]

Thank you John.  Good to know that TenTec is busy rebuilding itself. 
Was under the impression that you were assisting them part time or in your spare time.

Just as a new TEN-TEC would when they start coming off the line again. When someone needs or wants something new, they have to review what is available at the moment, and I advise, just as I use to do when I was a TEN-TEC employee, answering calls, talking at ham ventions, etc. I have always advised people that if they want something new, and if TEN-TEC doesn't have it, or if TEN-TEC did but it didn't have a feature they needed, then by all means go figure out which of the Elecraft equipment would suit your needs LONG before any other company, other than maybe Flex if you wanted an SDR. Just as with your experience, I also have nothing but praise to say about Elecraft, their owners, their product, and their support. Good American owned/made company. I do appreciate also though the people that are giving Mr. Dishop time to rebuild TEN-TEC and will then make their amateur radio product purchases then. Service is going strong, getting TEN-TEC rigs serviced and back at a very good and acceptable time frame.

So, this is coming from someone on the outside just as much as everyone else in this group, but, I am someone who takes the time to discuss status and other stuff with Mr. Dishop rather than just conjecture or spread speculation of gloom and doom.
