I will take one of each. Maybe they will keep the deer away. 73, Stan, W4AG Hey guys, on this great 1st Day of April, 2022, I am proud to announce: That I have developed a new line of 'Cutting Edge'
One of the batteries I replaced in my O2 lasted only a few weeks. I suspect that it had been on a vendor's shelf for too long. I was having the same symptoms you are reporting. A new battery from a d
That indeed sounds like an A9 board cap problem, although it is also possible that it is a battery problem. But try the caps first. Good luck, Stan, W4AG Within the last few days, my O2 has had audio
Gary, Please email me to let me know how much I owe you for the A9 board repair I sent. I am at w4ag at mindspring dot com Thanks and 73, Stan, W4AG If you can get it here, I can fix it. Gary W0DVN 6
Gary, If I send you the A9 board that I mangled trying to replace electrolytics can you repair it for your going rate and return it? Is your qrz.com address OK? Thanks, Stan, W4AG My two cents: I hav
Gary, Do you have an A9 board for the Orion? Thanks, Stan, W4AG Before I post to the worlds largest auction site, I wanted to see if there is any interest here on the reflector for my many Orion part

Yes, the same front would be fine for an O3. Keep up the great work you are doing. 73, Stan, W4AG (owner of an Orion and an Orion II) --Original Message-- From: TenTec [mailto:tentec-bounces@contesti
Wow! I sent my Orion in several weeks ago and got it back in 2-3 weeks. Things must have gotten very busy and/or service techs are taking their summer vacations. Also, I notice on the site that they
I wish Scott the best too, although I do worry about what now happens to the Ten-Tec Amateur line. Also wonder about the business case for a company that makes keys, although maybe Scott has some new
Hi, Rick, I agree with Mark's post...get the inrad 600Hz filter. I NEVER move the RF gain above 80 and usually put the AF gain near max and then use RF gain to adjust signal level. There are some AGC
I did John's mod not long after he posted it, and my RIT/XIT have been working fine ever since. 73, Stan, W4AG -- -- John, It's been a little while now. Are you still sure you have fixed your RIT pro
At Paul Clinton's urging, I performed your repair today, John, and my RIT and XIT are now working for the first time in about 3/4 years. This could be an oxidation problem that simply unplugging and
After a lifetime of Vibroplex keys/paddles I got a Begali Simplex a few years back. The N3ZNs look nice, but the Begali is the finest paddle I have ever used at any station. Too bad both companies do
Sounds like a leaky transformer or insulatior or a bad ground lead on the pole. I have heard of people fixing those problems by taking a 16-pound maul and hammering the pole a few times. Call the pow
In Pittsburgh, with all the tunnels going through hills into the city, we had QTI (going into the tunnel and you won't hear me for a minute or two) and QTO (tunnel out). 73, Stan, W4AG Let's Have it!
OK, this is weird. When I try to flash v.2.060b to the Orion, nothing happens. The update screen displays "ORION ROM UPDATE FILE" and at the bottom it displays "0 of 9521 Lines Processed." And then i
John, Thanks for the tip, but it didn't change anything. It gets to the point where the transfer should start and then just sits there. 73, Stan, W4AG Stan: Just for grins, go to the setup box in the
Grant, At least I know this happens to others, but nothing seems to be fixing it. I did a master reset and rebooted my computer. No dice. I replaced the serial cable. No dice. I turned on xon/xoff an
Gary, Thank you! That was it. It has been so long since I've done it that I had forgotten that step. 2.060b is now loaded. 73, Stan, W4AG Really silly question, but I tripped on this just a couple of
