Al, FWIW, I agree that TT has work to do for their original Orion and Orion
II customers. If they do not plan any additional revisions or upgrades,
they should clearly state so.
I have lost some confidence in their advertising claims and commitment to
customers. I view the firmware issues as part of their whole customer
service/repair package.

Let me understand that I bought 2 TenTec Orions, an Orion and an Orion II,
and paid for them in full. The firmware has bugs years after the
purchase. TenTec is aware of the bugs and I should wait for them to do
other things before fixing the bugs. Sorry, companies lose customers by
ignoring them in this manner. I am certain that former TenTec customers
have moved to the K3 and will continue to do so. Perhaps that is a
business strategy of TenTec to get the complainers to change loyalties to
another supplier and whine on their reflectors instead. There is
certainly a lot of moaning about deliveries on the Elecraft site, so if it
is TenTec's stratgegy it is working.
