You may well not have done anything wrong. In coming up on a year with the
Orion, there have been a couple of occasions when it appeared a flash memory or
memory register was full of garbage. The symptoms were similar to yours.
Cycling the power would temporarily clear things up, but the problem soon
reappeared. I cannot find any reason that should be so, but......
A master reset (hold the Main RX/Tx down and turn the rig on, when it tells you
reset is complete release the Main, tell it no to save your user memories and
no again to save your filter settings) has always cleared up the problem. So
far at least.
