[TenTec] Bring back the corsair

[Paul Christensen]

I think there's been some very valid points made in this discussion.  Either go head-to-head with price/performance of the SDR competition, or offer a very high-end analog rig and promote it as such.  Ten Tec could offer a Hilberling-like transceiver at a fraction of the cost and easily do it with better performance.  

I would leverage circuitry from the KK7B and Tayloe designs.  Include a 2nd Rx port for multiple purpose use including phase nulling of noise sources as an alternative to ineffective DSP noise blankers that all-too-often add artifacts to reception.  AC2IQ has developed a highly effective analog linearizer.  Include that too with with an external amplifier loop.

And what a fine sounding radio she is quite and smooth to listen to .i want a new corsair 2 with 500 hz to 30 MHz coverage with 2 vfos transmit eq and a nice big external speaker for $999  automatic cw id and a big readout and bigger S meter like my OMNI 5 and all the RX filters too. Ten etc.  will sell a million of them design and supported in the USA built in China
