I have a Ten Tec 1340 (4 Watts) and it is a good rig after making several modifications. Add a 10 turn pot for the VFO and Dave K1SWL Frequency Mite audible frequency readout and other simple modifications to improve the transmitter stability and get rid of popping in the received audio during keying all very well documented on the web by Monty N5ESE .
Also have a Wilderness Radio NORCAL 40 (2 Watts) which benefits by adding a 10 turn pot and audible frequency readout which costs about $70 more than the the Ten Tec with similar mods. This has a very clean design and is easily upgradable and servicable. It was designed Wayne N6KR one of the founders of Elecraft. There is also a interesting low cost $30 multimode software defined radio kit RXTX 6.2 (1 Watt) that I just completed by Tony KB9YIG but it requires hookup to a PC soundcard with free software. Good luck on making your decision 73, Bob Johansen WB2SRF _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
