Don't know his specific title, but when you call the sales number, he answers or Stan answers.... So he is sales. (maybe more than sales also) He has always been very helpful. 73, Lee, KC9CDT
Dick, For a long time now I make it a rule to never fly on any Airbus aircraft. Being a pilot(private), and having several buddies that are airline pilots... it is just a little rule I made.....! At
Oh Yah! Baby...... Flaps 40, gear down & locked, spoilers armed, airspeed 170, checklist compete... United 423 Heavy, check gear down & locked, clear to land 23 Right. Contact tower on 119.1 Oh what
Sorry you guys really don't understand what is going on here. The Orion is a special animal, not a standard run of the mill rag chew radio that you just turn on & use. (And take what you get, and if
Joe, Glad you have the option to go with different versions, especially V1xx vs V2xx. Unfortunately, with OII we don't have an option. If we did I would definitely be running 1.372...... We just have
Joe, The Orion I had was excellant. Never had any HW problems and the way I usually used the radio it was pretty stable too! The OII works OK right now as long as you use it as a basic transceiver. (
Craig, Right on the money! It is a fact that TT is loosing sales on Orion(II) because of problems. Aside from anything said here on the reflector, many folks have heard complaints on the air during Q

Buck, Here Here I totally agree! Make the NT like it was in 1.371. I actually helped me copy signals sometimes and it sure did quiet down the noise in general. After all it's called 'Noise reduction'
John, Thanks for the sugestions. My complaint about the bad audio reports were from the QSO, not the mon. I haven't tried the Mom yet. Also, I am using a Heil Pro-Line with the narrow element HC-5 I
