[TenTec] New TT rigs...thoughts

[Tim]

Hi,

I was rather vocal of the Argonaut VI. Part of my criticism concerned 
adding 160 meters and skipping 12 meters. I know the why for both. 
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.

Any body think it might be kind of cool if the Argonaut 7at  became a 
simpler, but direct competition for the KX3? Hmmmm, how about if the box 
was a smaller version of the box for the 515?
