Ron I think your original Orion WILL work with version 2.xxx firmware WITHOUT the Version 2.xxx mod. The sweep may not work and the display likely will not be as sharp. BUT it will work and it is VER
Well I must agree that the Scout is the VW of radios. I have even married these 2 icons into a single mobile unit! I love it! http://www3.telus.net/ve7tk/VA7VW.html What more can I say! 73, Rick VE7T
In mid March Tommy (WD4K) published a list of changes recently made by T-T to his Orion. http://lists.contesting.com/_tentec/2006-03/msg00677.html At that time I approach T-T Service to see if there
I am having some issues with static and my Orion 565. When I first acquired my Orion I noticed that on occasion when I plugged in the earphones the receiver would die. All the lights were on but "nob
I've been looking at the test results and was wondering where I can find out what roofing filters were used for the 2 kHz dynamic range tests. The footnote suggests a similar value at 1 kHz with the
I've played with this for quite a while. The ONLY way I can get the VFO mode to track is IF I have assigned an alternate VFO to the SUB-RX. If, for example, VFO A is on 14.300 USB and you've just com

Barry I just retried AM (100 watts into a dummy load) and MON function and I cannot duplicate the problem you have report? The MON worked on AM and came back to receive just fine? When I put the rig
Thanks for the clarification Barry. Mine does the same on the headphones. So I guess that a variant of the problem exists on the O1 with 2.056. I wonder if anyone has reported it to ditsnbits? 73, Ri
Joe did you do a Master Reset after uploading 2.055? Try that and see if the headphones come back. 73, Rick VE7TK Website: http://www3.telus.net/ve7tk Well, it too good to last. I have a problem, alb
Brent thanks for taking the time to put this list together. Yesterday I considered posting a similar list but didn't get around to it. It is somewhat re-assuring (in a sick way) that the same 2 probl
On 2 separate occasions this weekend I've had the receiver in my Orion lose sensitivity when working split and using the amplifier. Tonight I was on 40 metres SSB listening 7.094 and transmitting 7.1
Well I have almost the exact same set-up here. I had a similar problem (see http://lists.contesting.com/_tentec/2006-03/msg00298.html). My guess would be that your problem is NOT the N8LP box. I woul
Grant up until this weekend I would have agreed with you. In general the "hot-buttons" were small and did not really interrupt my operating style. Ten-Tec seemed to be picking them off quite well. Ho
Mine occurred on 40 metres into a 253 tuner that had been working for other QSOs and on 20 metres into a SteppIR without the tuner. In 2 of the 3 cases a power cycle of the Orion was all that was nee
Ron I finally got behind the rack and the voltage was 13 VDC. 73, Rick VE7TK Website: http://www3.telus.net/ve7tk Rick...what is the voltage on the line going between TX Out on the Orion and the Key
