Sinisa, Your testing, and finding the "spur problem" in the V2 firmware, is a good reminder that most of us don't really validate the performance of the radio with our "limited usage." We may realize

Lee, I think you must have "low expectations" for a "great contest radio?" With the V2 code display being useless in contesting, the QSK not working over 20WPM, the Notch and Auto-notch filters not r

Larry(N0XB), I don't think I was clear in my note on the "Great Contest Radio," although we might still not agree. I believe the Orion, with the V1 code - I run 1.373b5, is a great radio. I also unde

Carl(N4PY) the Orion is my first TenTec radio so I don't know the history of "specific nomenclature." However, I spent a lot of time with the R-390. I think you forgot to say that the R-390 had a 4KC

A few questions Merle: 1. If the starting point is using the DSP's 100 Hz bandwidth, will enabling NR improve S/N? I don't see that with 1.373b5 and Spectran. 2. If enabling NR makes no improvement i

I think that depends on what you call a "big difference." The outstanding performance of the Orion, with close in interfering signals, is largely made possible by the narrow roofing filters ( 1KHz, 6
