OT: RE: [aprssig] D-710 at FCC test site

[Scott Miller]

Then they're welcome to take it on.  I'm not particularly inclined to 
put a lot of work into making Kenwood's product better when they've not 
only not provided any help but have attested that they've done their 
best to prevent modification.

Now, if a radio manufacturer was to come to the APRS community and offer 
a D700/710 type radio that'd be developed as an open source project from 
the start, that'd be different.

I just wish Ten-Tec was in the VHF/UHF market.  They're the only ones 
I've ever had any real response from.
