No, it does not. In the original incarnation, it never really worked the way it was intended so it was taken out. It may rise again if there is enough interest, but I have to admit, while it was an o

The 'photo negative' is the main reason I didn't like it since everyone is used to the PSK-31 waterfalls that usually have a dark background and a lighter signal trace. It's possible that TT tried th

The RIT has been a persistent problem with the Orions and I believe after fixing the problem here that it is the connectors that tie the boards in the front panel together to form a sort of sandwich.

Assuming K1 is good, I would check K7, the surge relay. If that doesn't close, or has bad contacts, the dropping resistor will stay in the primary circuit and drop the voltage under load. That would

I have had good luck with a cheap Tripp-Lite 25 Amp linear supply I bought at a local surplus shop years ago. Essentially, any reasonably well regulated supply with 13.6 V at 20 -25 A will work fine.

That could still make it competitive with the K3 which has a 'stripped down' entry price of around $1,000, but a fully-loaded price north of $4k. If the basic RX platform has specs like the OII, it c
