And again just today...
I called Ten tec about my Pegasus I just got in trade...
Had a slow power prob.. I was on 40 meter AM. And when I set my dead key. It 
went from 0 to 10 watts fast but from 10 to 20 watts slow???  Humm called 
ten tec. They said no big deal change a cap in the ALC. From 4.7 to a 2.2..
 I Did and Guess what.???  PROB gone...
BUT I have never try'ed 160 meters on it till today.. (only got it a few 
days ago). Well 160 meters has no output.
I remember that these Pegasus had a relay prob. Sent email to Ten tec. Boom 
got reply  from them. And yes its a relay.
SAME DAY SUPPORT YES... And there are 14 relays in it. A FULL set is about 
25 dollars including shipping.
$1.25 each plus shipping...
AGAIN try that with a Jap box....
TEN TEC has my VOTE...
