Nope, it's a bug!  Even Lincoln would have agreed.
The Orion is broken.  There is a serious bug that no one has yet
mentioned.
I knew there was rare DX on the bands  a BR-something-or-other, but I
could
not hear it.  I tried headphones and an external speaker, I switched
back
and forth between my screwdriver antenna and my vintage Gotham
vertical.  No
matter how hard I tried -- I even turned on NR and NB and AN and went
to
manual filter selection -- I could hear nothing but band noise.

This is unacceptable.  Come on T-T,  get this thing fixed!!!!

I had a 15 meter Gotham and worked dxcc all 15 on it. Not heavy built but worked.
