Oh, and must look mil-spec (even if it isn't)  like the now-discontinued ICOM 7200,  with side handles front speaker and keyboard frequency entry....

Perhaps I could have handled the concept better if it had only 3 or 5 bands. I don't know, but it just seemed odd that 160 meters would be so important in a 10 watt radio.

I have had excellent performance with my Argonaut VI and my 6 meter transverter and Mirage brick amplifier.  I just ordered 6 and 2 meter transverters from Down East Microwave to replace my Elecraft units.  So, I may spring for a new Argonaut when Ten Tec gets them back into production.
