Sorry about you opinion on Tennessee Trash!

Lot's of 340 owners will tell you they wish they had never bought the rig!


Besides you, I'd like to hear about these "Lot's" [sic].


They are "FAIR" at best!....And mine have been to Ten Tec twice to see if
they can be "fixed" or "Improved".

Each has had a dozen different antenna systems tried on them and still they
suck. They "Sucked" at Ten Tec on their antenna as well while I was there!

I live 20 minutes from Sevierville and thats why I bought them.


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

The radio isn't perfect by any stretch -- not by a long shot -- but it
is one of the nicer radios I've had the pleasure of playing with. It
does exactly what I wanted it to do.


Both of mine will be coming up on Ebay soon.


....may I suggest that you work on your sales pitch a bit?

Now there's a bull**** post. You should try actually using an antenna.
Or maybe you forgot to turn the RX-340s on?

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 said, "They "Sucked" at Ten Tec on their antenna as well while I

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

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.

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

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