Re: [TenTec] Orion SSB challenge...

Regarding Art Bell's preferences to Ham rigs let me tell you of my 
experiences to the 3830 group now the 3840 group.

There have been many moves, many times on a nightly basis due to the 
"inconsiderate hams" that move next to and splatter on to the working 
frequency.

I used an Omni VI opt3 when I was part of the group. I am still using my 
Omni. I rarely heard the interference and when  tuned down band there was 
somebody working 3khz down band and yes they were S9+. Some times it they 
were real close I had to change from the 2.4khz filter to my 1.8khz filter 
and the problem always went away. This happened again a couple of nights 
ago when I was copying the mail on the group. When I listened with my 
PCR-1000 yes there was interference but not on my Omni. This time the 
interference was up band.

Stay with Ten-Tec on crowded bands.
