And some folks think they know everything too...especially when sitting behind a keyboard! I happen to know W9FCX quite well. He is one of those OT's who has forgotten more about ham radio than most
Taking a presentation out of context proves nothing about the numbers, but proves a lot about the poster! The best numbers does not make a good radio, the whole radio determines if it's best or not.
Dear (happy) Orion owners, Enough already...please! So you operate SSB and you have spent your 4000+ bucks and YOU have the best radio...that is wonderful and you should be proud. It is TRUE that a h
Interesting comparison of radios! I have an IC-781 and two Omni 6 Plus/with 600 hz roofing filter, all three of which drive my Titan 3 quite well in CW, full QSK. All three work excellent for my oper
No...you use a standard serial cable to interface to your computer. N1MM Logger and many contest programs interface with the Omni 6 + very well, with default parameters. Without a doubt, get an Inrad
No, it can not be answered because the filter term is incorrect. Neither Corsair had a 'roofing filter' other than that little Murata 20kc wide filter right after the first mixer. Otherwise, yes, you
Sometimes guys will disable that keying relay because they don't like the noise and are not aware it can be turned off/on in the menu. Check the voltage going to that relay coil, if the keying voltag
Hi Art, I agree with you Art. It is true this should not become a 'fuss' because Mike is correct and your statement is simply incorrect. End of story. Period! Happy Fathers Day..... Tom - W4BQF At Su
Ken, I really don't think specifications about fuses and circuit breakers is the significant point. It makes sense that the fuse could be quicker than a circuit breaker, still, that is not the point.
Good post Marsh. A good electrical engineer or electronics engineer use's a device that is proven to protect the system he has designed. Tom - W4BQF I cannot think of an overcurrent protective device

My goodness!! That is the same recommendation given to me two years ago when I said the same thing about lack of programming talent ! What progress, huh? Tom - W4BQF If you are that bitter over the O

I'm certainly with you on this one. When I sold my Orion, I purchased two Omni 6 Plus rigs and added the Inrad 600 Hz roofing filter and swapped the Logic chip back to v1.01. Since I'm primarily a CW
