Yes, I don't see the value in 160 meters for a low-power or portable rig , but
maybe there are QRP possibilities on the band. I'd like to see 60 meters. I
never hear any activity on 12 meters. Oh, and must look mil-spec (even if it
isn't) like the now-discontinued ICOM 7200, with side handles front speaker
and keyboard frequency entry....

Hi,
I was rather vocal of the Argonaut VI. Part of my criticism concerned adding
160 meters and skipping 12 meters. I know the why for both. Perhaps I could
have handled the concept better if it had only 3 or 5 bands. I don't know, but
it just seemed odd that 160 meters would be so important in a 10 watt radio.
Any body think it might be kind of cool if the Argonaut 7at became a simpler,
but direct competition for the KX3? Hmmmm, how about if the box was a smaller
version of the box for the 515?

I am mostly a casual operator here, so my Corsair II is more than adequate for
my needs. I am more interested in what happens to the Argonaut line. I have
had excellent performance with my Argonaut VI and my 6 meter transverter and
Mirage brick amplifier. I just ordered 6 and 2 meter transverters from Down
East Microwave to replace my Elecraft units. So, I may spring for a new
Argonaut when Ten Tec gets them back into production.
