Has anyone tried their Orion as an IF for use with VHF and UHF transverters? If so, I'd really be interested in your comments. It seems like this rig would be wonderful for weak signal work on these

Appreciate W4ZV sharing his experience with the Orion AGC. I've read Ten-Tec's excellent articles, and maybe I've missed something, but it seems like a piece of the puzzle is missing. My understandin

Thanks to Bill and others for informative comments. It seems that although Ten-Tec has made an unprecedented effort at providing technical information on the new rig, the AGC action really hasn't yet

It helps to read the manual. See page 33. The decay setting ranges in SLOW/MED/FAST AGC positions are restricted to values that make sense for those AGC speeds. Programmable AGC is settable over the
