When I run SP ~ 6 on 1.372, I get about double the average "talk power" seen on an RF power meter as I do with 2.056. I take it to mean that the v2 SP is effectively inoperative. Is that a fair concl
(A certain amount of rude language seems to go with ham radio -- or the Internet, but caps lock is de trop.) Anyway, I tried to phrase my report & question carefully. The fact seems to be that v2 fir
What audio frequency were you using? I normally (Orion, 1.372) set TX EQ to zero, SSB Tx filter to 3000, and SSB LF Rolloff to 50 Hz. You're only transmitting on a narrow audio band, but I would say
... I guess when you have a 1 ft. wide sheet of copper for RF useage, it has the same useable conducting area as if you rolled that one foot circumference into about 4" inches wide. So it is effectiv
Service notes would be a good idea. There is probably a lot of wisdom that TT's repair folks could share. There are a bunch of documents on the web sites, but they are not as well organized or easy t
Amazing. Where is the kb publicized? Obviously it hasn't worked very well in comparison to the various mailing lists. Did you know there is a TT website discussion group at http://groups.google.com/g
I don't have an opinion about O2 sound vs O1 (V1) or O1 (V2), but I would like to see measurements instead of comments like "not robust". I haven't got a clue what robust sound is! 73 Martin AA6E --
I can understand if the non-Orion TT readers weren't keen to get all this traffic. There is a very nice orion@contesting.com reflector just for us Orion users, but somehow many folks seem to stick to
I was interested in that remark about the "Weaver Phase Difference" method. How do we know what algorithms are in use in the Orion? I think Bill W4ZV made reference to this a while back. [I'm not fam

A problem with Sherwood's listings is that the numbers have no error bars. The O II and O I numbers may be identical, within the errors. You just can't tell. If you repeat these measurements *on the
Dan K6KDK has my condolences for having obviously not checked the "To:" list on his e-mail reply. A lot of us have done the same! It's sad when some readers don't seem to undertand what the Internet
It was just something broken in the 2.033 release. It was fine in 2.032. This is a common problem -- fix one thing, break something else -- temporarily. It will get fixed in a subsequent release. It'
Has anyone seen this? I did the v2 sweep mod, loaded 2.054b (sweep ok), didn't like it, and reverted to 1.372. Now, I loaded 2.055, and it is now telling me "V2 Mod not detected". I've tried all know
