Ahmen to that!! Once our Orions, or any other SDR's start seeing
upgrades, we better all learn to read and follow the update directions
VERY carefully. It sure would be a shame to render that new Orion
inoperable after an upgrade just because we don't RTFM!

Is this a computer users group or a Tentec users group?  With the new
breed
of radios I believe that you'll agree,........ it's both.  We've read
issues
here where a radio won't function after an attempted up-load of the
software
or operating system.  Now, is that a computer problem, a radio problem
or a
user problem?  Since the radio appeared to work before the up-load, then
one
may presume that it's not a radio problem.  Thus it appears to be
related to
perhaps a corrupt file being downloaded for latter up-load  or a user
not
getting things properly configured for the up-load of the new system.

It's going be fun as we move more and more into this direction of
software
defined radios.  I suggest that we start getting our computer skills in
good
shape as we begin to see more and more of this configuration.
