I have a theory on the Orion XIT/RIT problem. I now think the problem is with the ribbon cable that is connected to J2B in drawing 81917_3.PDF in the designator A8. I traced through the encoder for t

John, I don't know of any generic problem with flat cables on Orion, but I have experienced problems with a flat cable on a number of instruments, including a professional RFI receiver, the EMC 25. A

Used to be, Tentec used insulation displacement connectors for interconnecting ribbon cables. Some of those are more appropriate for 12 volt power than for low logic levels. E.g. tin connector on bar

I have serial number 03C10885 with v2.062a and have been experiencing the same RIT/XIT problem ever since 2.062a was loaded. I have reset, reloaded etc., but the RIT function is intermittent, with th

Vince During my siege with the RTI problem I found many different things I did to the radio seemed to make the RIT work--for a little. However I never found an early or late firmware load made any re

All I can say is that since the repair was done on my Orion serial number 10C10464 (as outlined in a previous post) in September 2007, I have had no further RIT/XIT problems. When I took the rig in,

Reg, What I am trying to confirm is that the cable is the source of the problem. When you do the V2 mod, you have to disconnect the suspect ribbon cable. That may be enough flexing to correct the pro

work. You still need to turn on the RIT/XIT from the front panel, but then you can change it with the POD. I had the 302R Pod and can confirm this, which caused me to feel it was not firmware but the
