I  agree with Pete.  While New technology is nice but being an old Navy AT
it is scary to look under the pretty covers to see how it is put together
an knowing you don't have a Snowballs' chance of fixing it when it breaks.
and it will break. I have (2)  PARAGONS and a OMNI VI+ THAT i THINK i CAN
KEEP OPERATING  it's AMERICAN made and a pleasure to use..  I also have a
 and a Jupiter.  Too many menus but I run  it in the Pegasas mode on and
old HP computer  with my RX-320  Bottom line New Technogy is nice and
necessary but some of us Dinosaurs live in our our old world where we are
comfy.  Please excuse the improper sentience structure.  and spelling.  73
