Mark, I have just received my new TenTec OrionII and going through the feature learning curve. Also, I've just ordered the Heil PR-40 (haven't yet received it. It will be here 9 August). If you weren
Ron, I'm not familiar with the TenTec net. Where is it located? Kirk, K6KAR --Original Message-- From: tentec-bounces@contesting.com [mailto:tentec-bounces@contesting.com] On Behalf Of Ron Castro Sen
Dave, I use a Heil PR-40 with my Orion II and like it very much. Highly recommend it! Kirk, K6KAR Thanks to everybody for the feedback on the microphones. I haven't seen too many comments from 709 us
Jeff, I am very interested in the document you refer to as a crib sheet. Is this something you created? If so I would very much like to have a copy. I've had my Orion for about 3 month's now and am j
It probably is true that Burghardt may have the DIN plug you are looking for. My personal experience with Burghardt is that they have horrible customer service. After my last experience with them, I'
Wayne, I use the Heil PR40 and love it. Very high quality. Kirk, K6KAR New Orion II owner here. Do you folks have any recommendations for a good mic to use with O2? I don't want a headset type. Thank
Lee, When I was configuring my OII I ran across the same problem. What I finally did was telephone Heil and explain the problem. They not only were quick to give me an answer, I had the part in hand
I sure would like to see step by step instructions If you have a source please let me know. Thanks, Kirk, K6KAR It's an interesting proposition since I travel on business several days out of every mo
Yes but based upon others comments (I think) it's a pain. I suggest having TenTec do the job. I only used it once and it worked great. I've been successful in getting good matches to my antennas and
I have both the W2IHY 8 channel EQ and the EQ plus run in tandem. My mic is a Heil PR-40 which feeds into the W2IHY products and then out to my Orin II. Works great. The W2IHY products are very high

John, I'm using the Signal Link 1 USB with my Orion II and like it a lot. When you place the order, just tell them that you're using the Orion II. They will know what (AUX) cable to supply. I don't u
I'll second Dave's (below) message. I've been using the Keyspan 4-port serial adapter for several months and never had a problem. Pricy but good quality. Kirk, K6KAR Niceville, FL I'm running a Keysp
You should be able set firewall exceptions in both your router and NIC. Go to TCP settings on the NIC and set exceptions to the program you're using for access. By the way. I use Ultra VNC to access
Ron, Couldn't agree with you more. A good example of the open source concept is Flex Radio. Yes I own a Flex 5000A and I also own an Orion II with 3 roofing filters. I didn't think a receiver could g
John, I hate to say this but for the most part it has all passed. Like you I started in 1954 but even with all the girls I still kept my interest in amateur radio. My Dad K6TMX sk got his license abo
John, I run my OII (although I prefer my Flex 5000A) on digital using the TigerTronics Signal Link USB interface. Works very well. Kirk, K6KAR Niceville, FL I will be the proud owner of an Orion II i
