I'm running Color 3 on the Orion II without any flicker (with the backlight
set to LOW). With the backlight set HIGH, I still do not see any flicker.
Running the latest version of the OII software. Interesting since below
said TenTec has it classified as a known issue.........Would like to
understand the configurations that folks are observing the flicker.

I also get the flicker on colors 3 and 5 but it is not consistent. No
flicker on transmit. Ten Tec told me the flicker on 3 and 5 was a known
issue.
