I haven't plugged audio into the Orion/2.060b yet, and since I always use the AUX input rather than the MIC input, I'll check that very carefully. Thanks.. Grant/NQ5T
The Orion is broken. There is a serious bug that no one has yet mentioned. I knew there was rare DX on the bands a BR-something-or-other, but I could not hear it. I tried headphones and an external
No. Want to by 10 of something? It is not fun scanning every one, one by one, and then getting yelled at by the machine that you have either NOT put your item in the checkout area, or have put TOO M
I reach back quite a few myself. I was just discussing with my wife the other night that in less than 2 years I will have been licensed for half a century. Time does fly when you're having fun :) Gr
Well, sure. But let's make it a fair comparison and get close to apples to apples. If you don't want or need what comes in an Orion, you can certainly not buy it if you buy a K3. K3, sub-receiver, 1

Did you try it on other carriers/heterodynes as a test? (sometime these "auto" things work, and sometimes they don't depending on many different factors). How about the manual notch? Grant/NQ5T
