Actually Rick, I'm not sure why the 515 was there. There was a note on top of
it, but I never got a chance to read it (it may have simply described the rig).
I was simply snapping a few shots of what was on display. Should have gotten
more pictures, maybe next year.
But I'll tell you what, looking at that 515 made me feel old. You see, when I
first moved to Pittsburgh, I was working in a (now long defunct) ham store,
which was a Ten Tec dealer, and we sold quite a few of those! (But I did like
the original 525 Argosy better... one of these days...)

Hi Steve,
It would certainly be nice if Ten-Tec could do a 515 again.
No chance.
I was not personally there but I think its purpose was to show how
technology has migrated with time to the new line of open source QRP
transceivers such as the Patriot and Rebel.
Like you, I have never been to Dayton.
Guess I never will get there.
At least I make it to Friedrichshafen every year, which is about 2/3 the
size of Dayton but in a much nicer facility, with great food, clean
restrooms, and parking without mud when it rains.

Thanks for posting these to your website, Rick!
Is that Argonaut 515 one of the upcoming new models? I really like using
mine!
I'm glad to see that all of these lines are back at Dayton. Now if I could
just get there once...
