Hi Folks.... I have had many emails asking why I decided to sell my K3. First, my K3/100 was SN 77, equipped with the ATU and 500 Hz five pole roofing filter. I am primarily a CW, DX chaser type op.
Hi guys.... My Orion with ATU had some "oddities" . The SWR meter portion of the radio did not always show accurate readings when the tuner was used.. Any similar issues with the Omni VII with ATU? T
If anyone is using a USB port to key the Orion in CW mode via a software program, please email me off-line! I need some guidance.... I have both N1MM Logger and WriteLog. 73 John K4NP _______________
Thanks Martin....that is what I will probably do. My laptop has only USB ports, but I can use a PCMIA card with serial or parallel port on it. I can control all other aspects of the radio, but can't
Charles..... Exactly why I sold my K3 and kept the Orion. But, I could hear the difference as well. And, the s l o w and low SSB output was also an issue. No band stacking registers was not fun. 73 J
Barry... Interesting. I was a beta user for the most recent release. I did not find the SSB output issue to be fixed. It would not "hold" the power level, especially when driving the amp. ___________
Well, I agree, but since we started it, some guys are probably interested. Let me end it by telling you that even a setting of 3.0, the max, doesn't get it done here. ________________________________
Hi Folks..... Decided to add to the Orion here. Looking for a MINT example of either of the above from non-smoker. Please email me off-line with configuration and asking price. 73 John K4NP _________

There is no question the Bazooka thread is OT and too l o n g. But, perhaps the TT folks would prefer it over questions about firmware updates to existing radios?! 73 John K4NP_ -- Original Message -
