Phil, I was sort of in the same quandry you are facing. Although I could afford 
the Orion II, I really didn't want to have that much invested in a rig. I don't 
operate on 6 meters, and I don't need to control the rig via the internet, so I 
decided to go with a used Orion AT. Just to share with you my experience, I 
have been extremely pleased with the Orion. It is really a fantastic rig 
despite the occasional grumbling on the reflector. I am very happy having made 
the decision I made. I hope this helps you...73, Ci
