Re: [TenTec] ORION II CW pile up readability

Jeesh! Why does someone eventually have to come along and turn a perfectly 
good and informational read into a "eham review, or article"?
I'm also glad, that you choose not to part with your Corsair II. It's a 
perfectly good, and SIMPLE radio! There are just some people out there that 
cannot function without simplicity in their lives!
The delete key is great, but I have to read your stupid comment first to 
decide whether I need to delete it or not!
