I am not sure I want to take the time to download this update.  Doesn't TT 
understand the concept of disciplined testing, even before release of a beta 
version?  That means exercising all possible combinations of paths and user 
commands.  And are they convinced this "red screen of confusion" is not caused 
by circuit noise or transmit RF?  Do they even have the manpower to apply to 
the Orion II, while apparently dedicating more man-hours to reintroducing old 
technology (i.e. speech pprocessors)?  I don't want to be negative on TT, when 
I bought my O-II I did primarily because I wanted to support an American 
company in this onslaught of Japanese engineering excellence (probably the last 
American company we'll see unless K and Flex can survive, and avoid going the 
way of GM and Chrysler)... but enough is enough.  TT you can't continue to 
hobby shop this software,..get disciplined... either get the talent you need 
for advanced software radio, or subcontract it out, or drop it and
  throw all your talent into speech processors, or maybe sell out to MFJ.  Get 
serious!
