* *You dog. I bet you're really going to enjoy that piece. Congrats,
maybe post some of what you're doing with it in here.


OK


I'm already enjoying it, and it hasn't arrived yet. It's just the 10
Watt version with one option (400 Hz 8 pole filter). *The nice thing
about it is that you can add a lot of features, but for what I spent you
can still get the best analog RF performance of any receiver, regardless
of price.


I'm going to have an entry level Ten-Tec 516 for sale shortly.


Yeah, I've read up on all the computer control receivers. At first I
didn't like the concept at all, IMO kind of like fishing with live
bait. Of course you're going to catch fish with live bait because
that's what they eat, I like the idea of bringing a rubber worm to
life or bringing a top water lure to life. But both catch the fish,
that is kind of my analogy of the two.


I want to get back to copying the weather faxes, I think that's a kick
for some reason - - and then go on from there. I need to dedicate one
of my hard drives just for radidio.:-)


* The K3 is a traditional radio. *No computer required unless you want.
