Bob,
There is mention of it in the firmware revision history.
08/25/03 Version 1.359
- Added bandwidth/mode association. Mode auto recalls last used BW.
I think my previous statement is not quite right. I was just playing
with it a little more and see that is does recall the last used BW as
described above.
For example -
Band Stack Register 1 - LCW 250 hz
Band Stack Register 2 - USB 2800 hz
Band Stack Register 3 - LCW 500 hz
Band Stack Register 4 - USB 3000 hz
If you change Register 2 to LCW the BW will go to 250 hz and if you
change Register 4 to LCW the BW goes to 500 hz.
On N1MM - Give it another try. It has come a long way in the last
couple of years. There is usually a very stable version right before a
major contest.

Many thanks. I've tried what you suggest and you're right, it does retain
b/w first set by mode. I can live with that. Did you find this out by
chance or is there a reference I've missed in the manual?
I've not tried N1MM, mainly because folks that have told me they found it
rather unstable. That was quite some time ago though, so maybe it's time I
looked at it more closely.
Thanks again.

Bob,
I think the default filter width gets set the first time you set a BW
for a particular mode after a reset of the rig. At least that is my
observation.
As far as software is concerned...I am a Writelog user too but I have
been using N1MM more and more. One reason is N1MM owns an Orion and the
program has the best implementation of the Orion of any contesting
software I have tried. If there is a problem it gets fixed pronto.

1. My contesting software is Writelog. I ran both Orions set at 250 Hz
b/w
most of the weekend. Whilst tuning around the bands looking for mults
etc I
band map wanted stations which don't answer me after a couple of calls.
I
then periodically return to their band mappped frequency to see if their
pile up has subsided. The problem I found is this: Every time I
clicked
back to a mapped frequency the rx b/w changed. If I had only one Orion
then
I would probably be thinking this was a logging software problem but I
don't, I have two and although the bandwidth changes on both it's not to
the
same setting. On one radio it always goes to a barn door 1 kHz but on
the
other it always goes to 300 Hz which isn't so bad. Though, I'd much
rather
it stayed at 250 Hz where I'd set it.
What determines the b/w set when frequency is changed via the RS232
port?
Why is it 1kHz on one Orion and 300 Hz on the other? Anyone know the
answer
to this mystery? Should I just RTFM?
