John Thanks a million. My original demon infested Orion 1 made many trips back to the mothership. This one is a replacement they very kindly gave me as a swap after giving up on fixing my intermitten
I don't have that here with 2062a. I am not using the bandscope, though. Bob W2WG Does any one have the same problem I have with V 2.062a? When I attempt to change bands or modes after a few minutes
Merle and Owen and Dick I have had the same problem several times--the no main RX part, that is. I don't use sweep. I had used the Orion (2.062a) this morning a little with no problem. I returned to
For reasons too long and boring to go into, I am making a change to the antenna configuration on my Orion I, going to a MonstIR for 40-10m on port 1 with a legal limit amp, and a variety of wire ante
Sinisia Thanks. A very definitive answer. I think I have nothing to worry about in this regard. I do use Beverages on the aux connector, but I that port protected by the ON4UN front end saver circuit
Hi, Duane You and several others have mentioned the "two lines short" problem. I don't see this on the load, but I do see it on the verify. The utility at the beginning of the verify reports the same
Try changing from UCW to LCW and see what happens. Let us know how you interpret the results. 73 Bob W2WG I have read many of the posts dealing with hi/lo cut on the Orion. However, just when I thoug
Sounds like a darn good true American radio. I think I will buy an Orion 2 having learned this. 73 Bob W2WG I always though of the Orion as a 'Republican' radio: It doesn't 'tax' your budget, it's no
My Orion Classic is headed back to TenTec after successfully working he BS7 yesterday, going to sleep in good health, and waking up to total insanity after all manner of resets and clears, etc. I'm t
That is great news. Thanks for sharing it. Bob W2WG Tentec has been listening and is about to respond! I received the following in response to my request for information regarding the CW sidetone art
What I have done several times is to look on ebay for a used rocketport PCI card. These are UART based and designed for commercial POS applications. You will find 8 port versions with an external cab
My Orion I had been loaded with what I think was 2056. I was pretty satisfied with that release and had stayed away from later ones because of some of the issues reported on this reflector and some p
Jerry I have just sent additional information to TenTec which is essentially the same as you report, and had contacted the factory yesterday with initial information about it. I had not seen your ema
Carl I have seen your suggestion recommended. I have tried playing with the hang time with very minimal if any effect. I have also played with the threshold and decay time. No effect. A strange chara
Merle I spent most of yesterday playing with the new release again, wondering again if I have overlooked something. I hear the same things you do. I have run every AGC parameter through its ranges ma
Martin I can't comment directly on your case, but I had an Icom 756 with a line like yours--which would come and go. Then another line or two would show up and the original line would be gone--for a
I picked up my LP-100 fully assembled and calibrated from Larry at Dayton. What a nice device! After using it a few days I packed away an RF Applications digital meter and a nice RF Engineering analo
Try grabbing the RIT knob, pull out fairly forcefully and rotate back an forth. This may or may not work and may or may not be a long term fix. Replacement of the encoder is the cure. It is doable at
As well as the original Orion. Bob W2WG It's good to see activity, but .. Too bad some of it isn't directed at the Orion II/v2 :( Grant/NQ5T _______________________________________________ TenTec mai
At the risk of reigniting a hot topic, this morning I developed a sudden SWR problem while running barefoot this AM. I was running 100W from my Orion 565 when I saw my digital meter jump up to around
