Rich:  What did you find better about the TT pair than the ICOMS?

Also...does your girlfriend have a sister?  Never mind...just kidding!

There has been some comment regarding my "foray" into Icom overpriced land and a review I posted on eHam. All I can say is - don't bother with the 7800 and PW-1 if you already have a Ten Tec Orion and Ten Tec Amp. It is NOT a step up, and is NOT worth the extra money.

Luckily I was able to recoup most of my money and went back to a Ten Tec OrionII and Centurion amp. If you've ever survived a divorce, you'll understand how you might do foolish things (hi hi). I guess you could say I went a step too far.

My ex wife hated ham radio, and my girlfriend helps me put up antennas and celebrates with me after working an all time new one - so life is much better than is used to be.
