- I would prefer TT trying to do something with a light grey on dark grey , along the lines of the omni6. That was a classic look. They may have spent a bundle on some injection moulds for the Orion, b

- FWIW, to set the record straight, if the Orion does in fact use an LCD display, it is unfair to compare it with the full-color display on the Icom PRO and PRO II. Those sets use TFT technology displa

- Isn't it possible that the prototype Orion's that we're seeing will not have the same case as the production unit? IE, perhaps the production run will have a better constructed case & different color

- Caution: Contains humor. It seems that so much of the recent discussion has focused on the looks of the Orion vs. what's actually in it or how well it will interface to the new technology world. FWIW

- On the other hand, you spend more hours looking at the radio, its cabinet, knobs, dial, display screen, et al than any other piece of equipment in the shack. If it offends you, that is bound to displ

- Just a thought... besides, I don't believe they've promised the rig would be for sale by Dayton -- I don't remember seeing a specific date or time frame mentioned yet. And there is some logic in disp

- Bill hit the main point what is inside is what counts. The Orion knobs happen to be similar to the Omni Six and probably are Ten Tec made. Their main feature, is that the tuning knobs have a spinner

- Some good true comments here. It is what is inside that counts on the air, but you do look at your own rig. Thus, I think I am going into a new line of service: Orion cabinet custom colors, (to suit)
