We are not looking at the same thing - what "fig. 2" are you
referring to? I just reviewed all the pictures in our promotional
literature and all the display shots on our website at
www.tentec.com/TT565.htm and the owners manual.
What are you looking at?
The promotional pictures we shot of the radio have the sub
display on 14.021.630 - and yes, the font for the main and sub
freq display are different. It was done that way because for
those size digits we felt each of those were the best font available
vs. size. I thought you were referring to the fonts used for
BW, PBT, RIT, etc.on the front of the Orion screen.
Surprisingly (I guess....) no one ever pointed out that the main
and 'sub' frequency displays on the Jupiter are two different
fonts as well - on purpose.

Hi Scott,
Yes, it's those digits. As one example, in fig 2. you
can see that the number "1" has a base in the
sub-display but not on the main display.
The disparity of fonts and the placement and alignment
of the various parts of the screen (ex. the dropped
"4" in the "14.012.620" sub-display in fig. 2) give
the display a feel which might be greatly improved
without major effort.
Hope this helps!
