Mark, What a great idea! Thanks for posting this. Now, if only someone would do a "how it works" article for the Orion, keyed to the schematics. I miss those Heathkit manuals. :-) 73, Martin, AA6E __

OK, I'll bite. BQF says Orion is not an "SDR", but many other people do use that term for our favorite big black box. I have wondered about this. A "software defined radio", we are told, is one where

Scott, Thanks for the memory boost. This is a glass half full or half empty kind of thing. Do we have an SDR with a big frontend or a normal radio with an SDR backend, etc. An important aspect SDR is

Eric, Your story is very interesting! I am another Orion user who has mixed feelings about a rig that has a little too much "personality", despite some excellent specs. Fortunately for me, the Orion

I find that optical isolation can be very helpful for the Orion and other ham gear. This protects against RFI and lightning both. Attach your Antenna A connector to a bidirectional 100 watt optoisola

A different method. Listen on 10 MHz in CW mode and press "spot". You can easily hear the beat between your spot tone and the WWV carrier to +/- 1 Hz. Right now, I get 9.999973 MHz, meaning that my T

When tuning SSB, I like to use 100 Hz or even 1 kHz steps. If everybody's oscillators were well adjusted, we could use 1 kHz "channels" and make life easier, especially with nets. Apparently lots of

John, Can you explain the concern with "reactive current" in a nutshell? Any equipment with a non-unity power factor (i.e., anything other than a pure resistive load) draws reactive current -- i.e.,

I can repeat this in CW mode, especially when adjusting for moderate power, around 50 W. The Orion power meter fluctuates by up to 10% a few times per second. The good news is that the actual output

Frank, I don't know what you mean by "power absorption". I don't see such variations in power output on my analog meter. If you are using a digital meter, I would check the meter itself. Does it work
