It's funny you mention those old "color" filters for B&W TV's, Greg.  I
mentioned to my friend, AG5W, when he ordered his Orion II that I was going
to bring them back for the Orion I owners so we could all say we "upgraded"
to a color screen - hi, hi!

You all might remember people putting red, blue, or green cellophane or thin
plastic sheet over the screen to give it color! Does anyone do that any
more?  The color on the OII is wonderful! OTOH, to some it might seem like
putting playing cards on the spokes of your bicycle when you were a kid...it
didn't make you go any faster, but the loud sound sure gave you a rush! Yes,
I was one of those kids! :-)
