[TenTec] Any truth to the rumor?

[Bill Mills]

John,

Your buyout statement sounds very plausible?  Martin Jung (MFJ) is a very
likely buyer since Ten-Tec manufactures most or all of the MFJ equipment
metal enclosures.  Last time I visited the Ten-Tec factory (2002) I was
disappointed in the overall looks of the place i.e. lack of staff,
maintenance of the outside and inside of the facility, etc..  The Ten-Tec
amateur product line is not their big money maker.  They build enclosures
for several different manufactures, have U.S. Government
contracts, etc..

Also, their amateur radio products are manufactured when they receive orders
for 100 or 200 units then they activate the production line.  When I
visited, I was impressed with the technical staff and manufacturing techs.

Best 73,
Bill
