> 
> Information on the Orion transceiver is now posted to the
> Ten-Tec web site.  The URL is www.tentec.com/TT565.htm
> Please note that if you go to the Ten-Tec main page at
> www.tentec.com that nowhere does a link appear for Orion
> info - at present you've got to enter the URL directly.
> We'll change that in a few days.
> 
> The text that appears on the Orion is the same that we will be
> bringing as product literature to distribute at the Charlotte
> hamfest this coming weekend.
> 
> Of course, the information on the Orion is going to bring up an
> endless series of questions about the new radio.  There are not a
> whole lot of answers about specifics to be provided.  Like 'how
> does this work', 'will this control do this, what's the range of this'
> - implementation issues like these are still yet to be worked out.
> 
> Please note, the feature listing for the radio is by no means complete.
> We've just touched on some of the highlights of what the new rig has
> to offer.  Keep in mind all of this is subject to change.
> 
> There's no picture of the rig at present, as the cosmetics are still
> subject to change.  Given the proliferation of digital cameras, I am
> sure pictures of the prototype rig that we'll be showing at Charlotte
> will make it to the web next week.  We'll wait until everything is
> finalized before releasing a photo of our own.
> 
> There is no specification sheet included - while we do have specific
> design goals for Orion in mind, we didn't want to publish a preliminary
> spec data page only to find that the actual numbers exceed the
> design goals.   We'll have specifics in time for Dayton.
