A Sampling of Ten-Tec Ads Over the Years
Ten-Tec was founded in 1968 by Al Kahn, K4FW (SK), and Jack Burchfield, K4JU. Mr. Kahn became a Silent Key in 2005. Mr. Burchfield is currently President. In addition to manufacturing amateur radio and commercial communications equipment, Ten-Tec operates a complete tool and die shop and molding facility. Ten-Tec builds all its own enclosures as well as custom work for outside customers. Ten-Tec is located in Sevierville, TN, and is a 100% U.S. owned privately-held company. Majority stockholder is Mr. Burchfield with several past and present employees and their families being minority stockholders.
From the Ten-Tec Reflector June 20, 2005
There is an independent board comprised of a few of the owners and several other successful business personalities who are licensed amateurs but do not have an ownership interest in the company itself. They provide objective perspective and advice to us.
The day-to-day operations are headed by Jack Burchfield and Ten-Tec VP Gary Barbour, AC4DL. We have a management team of 9 people (myself included) under Jack and Gary that oversee various parts of our operation to take care of the various day-to-day dealings with customers, service, production – everything.
2005 is 37 years for us in ham radio - many more to come.
