Now that you have done the resets, do all of the buttons now work? Are both main and sub- receiver dead? Does the radio operate in transmit? 73 Gary W0DVN
Good point Bill. As Ten Tec ALWAYS told folks on the phone, if you are having trouble with just about anything regarding flakey problems like this, recap the A9 board. I have cured several Orions wit
The recommendation to recap the A9 board is still a good one. I have personally witnessed and Orion operating correctly sometimes and not other times and completely repaired the radio by replacing th
Well I have a transformer for the C21 sitting right behind me if you find that you need it. With the power switch on, you should see voltage across C1 regardless of trip condition, as long as the pow
