21. [TenTec] QSK vs 1.370 (score: 1)
Author: Martin Ewing <martin@aa6e.net>

de N4LQ: WIsh I could have figured out what happened to my QSK with 1.370. The sidetone sounded beautiful but QSK became semi-bk in with maybe a .25 sec delay which is certainly not QSK. I redownload

When checking the S-meter, be sure that your preamp is ON and the attenuators are OFF. It also helps to have the antenna buttons set right! I get Q5 copy through my dummy load sometimes, but the mete

K8DIT: "Tec design and performance draws from design ideology less manipulated by committees of engineers and delivers more of a rough hewn adventurful radio experience." Let's post that in big type.

One sign of being "finished" is that the specification is published and the system meets the specification. I am thinking of the serial interface, which is still not right. (Some commands don't work;

Mark has a great point. Frequency step is clearly a "VFO" property, but it is assigned to the main/sub receiver. You might (or might not) say the same for RIT and XIT. Anything that sets or modifies

Maximum speed = minimum speed = 57.6 kb/sec. For some reason TT did not see fit to put this in the Orion spec sheet. It's not in the Orion manual, but it is in the Programmer's Reference Guide. That

Easy question: Does anyone use the Orion's NB button? When is it useful? When is the ":HW" option needed? Maybe I live in a blissful radio quiet zone, but my NB (1.371) seems to be a no-op. Nothing c

Well, when I switch in 6 dB of (power) attenuation on my Orion, the S-meter goes down by 1 S-unit. Decibels usually measure _power_ ratios. Of course, you're right that the S-meter is traditionally d

Yes, except the QSK Delay adjustment seems to work like "VOX Hang". At 100% setting, it holds Tx mode for maybe 0.5 second. That's what I'd call semi-breakin. It would be interesting to check QRQ in
