[KE9V] Time Running Out for TenTec

The clock is ticking and time is running out on TenTecs last act.
They just started shipping old radios that were sent in last year for
repairs.
They no longer do it as a "good deed" at a low price, but they are
repairing them at what is market price for repairs from a commerical
operation.
Yes, there are some changes, and new rig sales will no longer subsidize
old rig support, but it is there and they are more likely to survive.
Free support is now limited to the Yahoo group (which is very good),
and not a phone call to the factory away.
I would not write them off yet.
73,
Geoff.
