Unfrick'in believable! The IEC/AES Standard that Jim is referring to was developed long ago for Sound Reinforcement Equipment Systems safety and uniformity within the industry and doesn't have a darn
Bottom line, if I have a mic with simple coax -- one center conductor plus shield -- to which pin is the shield to be attached on the Orion? End Quote. The shield connects to the mic connector case.
Hi Tom and Group, If you want to know if you have the later version of the Orion, take a multi-meter and set it to OHMS. One lead will go to the Orion mic connector, the other lead will go to the gro
Hi Tom and Group, If thats the case, then you will have to use Pin #2 for the shield, with no wire connection to the Orion mic connector. If RFI continues, then my suggestion to you is to install a .
Hello Group and Happy Holidays, Over the last year we have all sat at our comfortable operating positions reading email concerning Ten-Tec and the Orion. As this year comes to an end, I cant help to

Hi Jim. Read your White Paper on the subject topics. I think that one thing that was over looked in your presentation was the fact that; On AC unbalanced wiring systems reactive currents (milliamp) a
Before I call TT, I wanted to ask the Orion owners this question. Does anyone know how to open up the reciever/s up to 10Khz on the Orion? Since commercial AM/FM radio stations transmit at 9.5Khz, it
It all depends on ones interpretation of the words"a while". The words "a while" to me indicates the end of April. Barring any unforeseen gotshas! 73 John / N0KHQ / St. Louis ________________________
Hello, Its good to see a new batch of Orion owners starting to pop up. I am in the process of putting together a "Quick Setup Guide" for the Orion. At this writing the QSG is about 60 % complete. I h
Hey All, Got my new PR-40 hooked up going directly into the Orion mic connector without any outboard processing. TXeq is set at -18db, the SP is set at 2, TX Roll-off set at 50hz and TX BW set at 315
Hello Manny, The PR-40, as shipped from the factory, is unbalanced. Meaning that pins 1 & 3 are jumped together and grounded to the mic case. To balance the mic, it is necessary to pull the XLR out o
On the back of the circuit board that has the 4 pin foster plug make sure that you cut the trace that is carrying the 9+ volts to pin #4. And then solder a wire (I would use 14ga wire-lamp cord) to p
Hello Group, I am a Beta tester for engineering at TT and am very proud to have been selected to participate in the commissioning of the Orion and software. I am, by nature, a very analytical individ
Hi Mike, Looked at your .jpg's nice pictures. The first thing you might want to try to get rid of the Orion anomalies is to get it off the top of your antenna tuner. :-)) geez! John / N0KHQ Message:
To correctly set up the TT-238B ATU (or any other ATU) you will need an MFJ-259B Antenna Analyzer or equal or better. The reason I say this is that there is more than one combination of settings to a

The Orion Aux Input supports Vox. Keep in mind that the audio must be delivered at line level voltages (millivolts). The Aux Input will not produce an output if driven at mic level voltages (microvol
