<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#444444">Effective October 13, 2020 the ON LINE STORE is OPEN for amateur business again!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#444444">However, we are functioning on a very limited basis. Email will be answered and shipments processed ONLY on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Operating a small
business during the new world of COVID is a difficult endeavor, so please be patient with us. The good old days are gone and they probably aren’t coming back. These are trying times for everyone. Keep in mind it isn’t just TEN TEC but the entire world economy
that is back logged from being closed a half year and it is a long road to recovery. Rome was not built in a day but it sure didn’t take long to burn down.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#444444">We have caught up with and returned all the repairs from before the state mandated closure. We are issuing repair RMA’s again. However, please do not
expect rapid turnaround times because we probably will not be physically able to get to new repairs for a couple of months considering the upcoming holidays. Right now we are just overwhelmed with commercial production and the new Dayton factory project. Growing
pains are inconvenient but serve the health of the company in the long term. We are positioning Ten Tec to thrive in the future and just have to do the things that we do. Hopefully amateur radio production will restart in the first quarter with Omni 7+.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#444444">Thank you for your patience and continued support.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
