I'm using 2.056, runtime stability was paramount for me. With 1.372 my
rig locked up from time to time, but 2.056 is rock solid. Since I'm a
CW op the 2.056 issues often discussed here don't impact me, and I
have grown accustomed to the minor display oddities (ragged
justification of certain lines of text, and funny offset in sweep
display in UCW mode).

I'm running 2.056 as well. I'm a CW only op, and don't do
contesting. The reality is that the radio is probably more than I
need, but I love the sensitivity and after owning several TenTec
radios (C21, Argosy II, Corsair II, Argonaut 5 and Jupiter) , as well
as a couple of Icom and Yaesu radios, I knew I wanted another
TenTec. Truth be told, I think for a general get on the air radio, I
like the corsair II best - mostly for its simplicity and great
receive. But I do love my Orion, particularly when working those
borderline QRP radios. Diversity reception is amazing.
