There *is* an upside to the Orion II retirement: All those folks who have been on the fence can now get on the waiting list for the DreamRadio 1! Reed / WW3A _________________________________________

Higher output from the device before distortion occurs. You can only get so much power out of a PA with a 12V power supply before you drive it into distortion. 100W is pushing it at 12 v so distortio

"The higher the voltage excursion, the longer the linear portion of the output/drive power curve. For this reason, amplifiers powered from 40V or 50V DC exhibit considerably better linearity, and thu

If an Orion 3 or Eagle II comes about, I'll probably get in line for a used Orion II. I like my classic Orion and an O2 might become more affordable once a follow-on rig comes forward. I have to say,

i too am glad ten tec is stockpiling parts for repairs. it does not really bother me that the O2 has become obsolete. i ran a Drake TR-4 for 25 years, so surely the Orion will do as well. maybe there

I think you're reading FAR too much into Ten Tec's announcement by calling the O2 "obsolete." It would be obsolete it if had been replaced by a far superior model, or if it could not be repaired. As

The 850 is a decent radio, reasonably clean. I ran a pair for a while and liked them. The FT1000 comes with clicks, and must be fixed, but was an improvement over the 850. The MP and its family have

Several people that I know, including myself, were very happy with the O2 for quite a while.  We became disenchanted with the upgrades because they added features but also broke things along the way.
