I have been following the "First Ten Tec" thread by Rick with great interest! 
Mine started with a PM3 then a Triton IV  then an OMNI A Series B then an OMNI 
D then another Triton IV with digital accessory along with a Century 21, a 
Century 22 and then I bought a Corsair II. At one time had then all together 
and used all of them CW only (no SSB).
I got very sick in 2000 and disposed of all my gear!  Everything.
Too make a long story short I am still here. I want ( and need) to get back on 
the air and I found a Scout with all the modules and plan to put it on the air 
as soon as I get a wire up.
I read the post from the fellow who thought "the Scout was Ten Tec's low 
point". I would like to hear from Scout users who love the Scout or hate it. I 
want to know about the freq drift(?) when using the internal keyer(?) Will it 
be better if I use an external keyer? Will I like the Jones filter after using 
250/500 Hz filters? This Scout was back to Ten Tec for a go-over about a year 
ago (right before I bought it). I have the 937 Power Supply to use with it.
I plan to use the Scout fixed only-no mobile. And on CW only. Give me your 
experiences and thoughts! I would be grateful for any info!  Thanks!!    Mike
