Hi, all.

I  know this is going to sound weird, but I had never heard of the earlier
TS680 until this thread appeared.

I always try to figure out how manufacturers number their rig models, and
find it interesting that the TS680 seems to have been out before the TS480
and the TS590.

I guess it's just the professor in me---trying to find logic, where logic
doesn't always necessarily exist.  (smile)

Someone feel free to correct me, but as I recall, the TS-680 is a TS-140 =
with 6 meters added. The '140 has no speech board available, and it also =
does not have a keypad for frequency entry. Nor does it have a built-in =
autotuner.=20
