Yes... indeed. I recently acquired an Orion II to accompany my Omni VII. Unfortunately I had to sell a nice TT Jupiter, my TT RX-320D and some other stuff I liked to swing it. It seemed a more cost-e
My Orion II is corn-fused. I purchased a new battery for the logic board IC, but it STILL refuses to run the full course when doing a Master Reset. It seems to install the firmware correctly, but fai
Yes... more times than I can count. :-( First I do the RAM Clear on VFO Lock 2, then I do the Master Reset on the Main RX button, but the Master Reset fails to run the full course. Thanks for asking.

This is an interesting point... considering it now, I hardly tweak the radio during a contest. I only adjust it when I encounter a difficult or weak signal, and then leave it while I take stranger st
I have a Weller WLC100 Adjustable Power Soldering Station which costs about $50, unless you find it on sale for less. Works great and seems very stable over time. I use three or four different tips d

I added about 10 feet of wire inside the shack and strung it across the ceiling. Is that coax or window line? What if you add a substantial length of coax...? What if you, instead, add a substantial
