I haven't checked the frequency response of the AM on this release yet, but I may do it over the weekend. Subjectively, it sounds good, and in the last version, the TX response went from below 20 Hz

I couldn't wait for the weekend to test the AM TX frequency response on the Orion II 2.038k firmware, and what I heard subjectively proved out in the measurements. The response is +0 -3 dB from 50 to

I would suspect that something is wrong. If the radio can be controlled by external rig software with reasonable response, then the firmware download should be done in 3 minutes or so. Make sure the

Good comparison. I looks like there were a number of small fixes that were specific to the 566, as well as the operation features that were for both. The QSK one is the only possible exception. Altho
