From N8WFF:

?

Phoenix is NEW from ground up!

?

Please wait for the story to be published.? We do our new product introduction at Hamvention Friday morning at 10? sharp!

One week from the following Monday the website goes live.? I support DARA and if you want to be first you need to be there. Otherwise you wait.

?

I saw the other radio you think it is years ago and the developer and I agreed to build a NEW ground up radio.

He has added his know how to my know how and PHOENIX is born…

It is VERY MUCH TEN TEC inside!!!!?? I took the BEST of what we had, and the BEST of what he had, and the BEST of what I know how to do, and we added this up and you have the PHOENIX!

?

PASS THE WORD!

?

I need 100 pre orders for PHOENIX club. It costs you 500 NON REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT and I’m using that to buy parts.

?

IF you love Ten Tec, and you want Ten Tec to STAY in ham radio then you need to join the Phoenix club which assures you get a radio. The price goes up after the 100 spots close to be just like the other people’s price. Who knows how long parts will take?? If you aren’t in the club you are going to have to WAIT and maybe WAIT a LONG TIME, because WHO KNOWS the state of the world and the economy then!? IN the club gets you a certificate thanking you for the rebirth an relaunch of TT in Dayton and your name/ call on Plaque inside the lobby, free shipping lower 48, next year banquet pass for 1, limited to you and your SO if you are married, and a factory tour after the BBQ “Dining with Ten Tec under the Stars (or Christmas tree lights if there are no stars )? Like everything else we will just have to make our own probably.

?

I HAVE DONE MY PART FOR TEN TEC!

I HAVE FULLFIILLED EVERY PROMISE I MADE.

?

Ten Tec stayed open and still is open.

Sevierville is CLOSED because they had 100 radios sitting on the shelf they did not open for a YEAR when they had NO WORK to do other than repairs!

I sent every radio back to the owners and asked them to send the postage back to me if they could at a personal cost to me of over FOUR THOUSAND DOLLARS.

Not ONE person sent back their postage.

?

I promised you a NEW RADIO and you have SEEN it with your own eyes this weekend.

?

Again I have done MY PART, MORE THAN ANY PERSON ON EARTH HAS EVER DONE FOR TEN TEC.

?

Now it is YOUR turn.

It is up to YOU if Ten Tec continues, or if I close it forever or just SELL it to the Chinese, and don’t think I won’t do it either.

This is a two way street gentlemen.

I’ve kept my mouth SHUT about a lot of things for a long time until I could let my actions speak for my words. Forgive me if I am too direct and for not pulling any punches, but I’ve been fighting an uphill battle with no money, no backing and no resources ever since I went in to this in 2016. You have no idea of how terrible things were at Ten Tec and the rape and pillaging that was done to the company by previous owners.? It literally was SQUEEZED like an orange so hard that there wasn’t even any rind or pulp left. I have had to rebuild EVERYTHING and clean up a 50 year old disaster.

?

With the demise of MFJ there is a real need for some of the older TT products like the manual tuner, watt meters, etc. But it takes MONEY to do this folks.? I have an extensive electronics production and I was building a metal shop before the pandemic hit. I need money for parts and to finish the metal shop.? EVERY CENT from the sale of these 100 radios is going to be reinvested into TT to bring products back on the market. YOU can’t do this cost effectively without a metal shop.? If anyone loves TEN TEC and just wants to send us a check to help to buy the stuff we need it will accelerate the process.? Again I’ve gone as far as I can go for Ten Tec.? Keeping things open best I could in Pandemic has cost me literally a fortune.? I’ve done the best I could do for everybody and mostly got nothing in return but criticism and attacks.

?

One more thing, PLEASE NEVER come up to me and say “Is TEN TEC still open”?? Please correct anyone you hear saying that or asking that.? There are a couple people who have an axe to grind with Ten Tec and Alpha whom I’ve never even met who keep doing this constantly all over the internet. It causes financial damage to me because it undermines confidence and nobody wants to buy product.

?

As a reminder, to the best of my knowledge I am the only guy left brick and mortar manufacturing my own products with the demise of MFJ.? I’m the last man standing for entire in house production in the US.

?

When I go your choices are down to, well , you know.
