Never mind I read a little further into my emails and you said you meant Orion1
so got it, thanks.
I am thinking seriously about trading my FT-1000MP MKV for a TenTec, I have
seen a couple of trades which would involve a OMNI VI+,
they sent me pics and were interested, but I chickened out. I wish I could
listen to one before deciding, this 1000MP has me
**trapped**, I want to try a TenTec (cant afford to buy one) so would trade,
but, this MP1000MP MKV is the best rig I have used in a
long long time.
I have not seen any Orion 1 up for trade, just the OMNI VI, VI+ and VII's.
