I had the opportunity to make one cw qso with the Eagle while at the TT 
hamfest. It's very much like the Argo V however it has various roofing 
filters available for the 9 Mhz first IF. Claimed BDR was very high. I was 
able to hear it's little relay noise above the racket of 50 people and that 
just isn't acceptable. It has no IF output. Cost is about $1700. NB is an 
option. I think it compares to the Kenwood TS-590 soon to be released 
however the 590 does have band buttons/stacking register etc.
I'm not sure where the market is for these but overall, if you prefer TenTec 
over Kenwood then this might be your best bet.
