   Yes, they are.  I believe they got bought out and HQ is in Colorado but   
   their factory in Sevierville is still going and if you are local and buy a   
   radio from them, you can pick it up right at the factory.   
      
   I would love to find a Ten-Tec Scout with all of the freqency modules to use   
   as a "out in the sticks" rig.  Once I can get Social Security and my 4WD   
   Pathfinder fixed, I fully intend on doing a lot more mountian topping and   
   SOTA/POTA activations.

   anymore.
