You should buy a good signal generator for testing. That way you can
provide real numbers and not "sucked on every antenna". Maybe all your
antennas stink? How should we, or Ten-Tec, know?

You tested them, hated them, then bought two. So who is the real
"Tennessee Trash?"

I bought two because I live close to Ten Tec in case I needed repair or
service you dip****.

Where in the sam hell does it say I tested them before I bought them
asshole??

You said, "They "Sucked" at Ten Tec on their antenna as well while I
was there!"

....I just said they sucked on every antenna I tried em on...Even
Ten Tecs antenna when I took em back to get em fixed...

You didn't say "to get them fixed." You said, "They "Sucked" at Ten
Tec on their antenna as well while I was there!"

Better go get your
dyslexia fixed you ****ing retard!



I think you are the "retard." You either

1) Bought two $4000 radios WITHOUT TRYING THEM FIRST,

....or...

2) Tried one, didn't like it, THEN BOUGHT TWO.

Which is it? I have your full messages from before, so don't try to
twist it 'round.


....and you have the gall to compare it against an ICOM PCR-1000 or a
YB???? I don't think *I*'m the clueless one here. Even a mediocre
performer will outperform the PCR-1000, an unfortunate abomination
made during ICOM's "I don't give a ****" period.

Even I drove the 8 hours to spend a whole day with the '340 before
plunking my money down. Only a damned fool drops that kind of money
without taking a test drive.

No need to act like another dxAce. He doesn't need the company.

So, I guess I'm not REALLY happy with my PCR-1000?

Right, well, while you're on a roll, why don't you re-tell the tale of
your two Drake R8 receivers?

No thanks....I already gotta pair of RX-340's and they aint much of a
radio...my old PCR-1000 will keep up with em all the way...matter of fact my
old grundig yb-400 will outdo em at times LOL!

Hey MY FR-200 works better than my Hammarlund HQ-170.
Unfortunately, the 170 has a bad tube...


Well, yes... and your FR-200 doesn't work well at all after being
driven over, but an R-392 does just fine...

Oh, gawd, does his magic yacht-boy outperform the R8s, too. This
guy's a real winner. Tennessee Trash, indeed.

Judging from his troll tactics, language and a number of other factors,
it seems to be the same guy who was earlier posting under the name of
"Rob".

As for his YB-400, it has on occasion been the subject of ridicule (I
guess these things simply depend on who he's trying to get riled up):

http://groups.google.com/group/rec.r...17d19d9ad9d270

As for his two R8 receivers, they were such a "big disappointment" that
after 6 months of use, he gifted them to his sons so that they could
listen to their high school radio station (!):

http://groups.google.com/group/rec.r...a2cb7d67d7180a

As far as these things go, one can't help but to concede that the "high
school radio" touch to the story was pretty original.

This guy seems to have also posted under a few other names: "johnboy"
and "JR" and ". While he changes names a lot, various
aspects of the troll tactics remain consistent. In any case, he seems
to keep himself amused. And, after all, for good or ill, usenet is
basically one big zoo where anything goes...

Great. This guy is a real winner. I'm not sure if I want to call him
a troll or just mind-numbingly stupid. Calling him a troll might give
him "respect" (in his eyes) he doesn't deserve.
