Re: [TenTec] Model 963 questions

One of the first things I noticed when I purchased my brand-spankin' new 
0rion-2  and 963 was "floaters"on 160M. Not having these with other radios, it 
was narrowed to the 963. Tried a friends' ... same thing. Tried another that 
T-T sent along ... same thing.  Ferrites on DC line ... same thing.  Astron 
RS-35 .... gone.  963 packed   back in the box. Granted, they were pretty weak, 
but so was the DX I was trying to work. Being brand new, I wasn't going to be 
doing any kind of redesign/rebuild. I stay away from switchers, period.
