What you are seeing seems typical for the Orion. My N4PY Orion control program has a calibrate feature in it that lets the program display correct this frequency error. You tune in WWV at 10 mhz and,
My N4PY Orion program has a software calibrate procedure. This procedure makes the program display be within a few hertz at 10 mhz and has the advantage of not having to adjust the Orion hardware. Ca
The ALC in the Orion is internal only. There is no external ALC on any tentec radio. You simply adjust the "PWR" level on the Orion for the correct drive level when in CW mode. Then in SSB, the drive

This problem would also be caused by the program not being able to receive data from winkey through the serial port. Make sure the send data line from the winkey is going to the receive data line of
Jim, In my N4PY program, the CW Dah weight control sets the Orion's internal keyer weight setting. The dit weight control and between character control are no longer used and I should remove them. Or
