1. [TenTec] Orion gain setting (score: 1): Author: Barry N1EU <barry.n1eu@gmail.com>; Date: Wed, 9 Nov 2011 06:26:50 -0500; I'd probably never set it above 75. If you can hear band noise in the background, it's plenty high. Here's a 60-second method to gain adjustment: 1. turn RF Gain to 100 and tune in an s9+ station. 2.; /archives//html/TenTec/2011-11/msg00077.html (7,370 bytes)

Threshold is automatically set internally when you adjust RF Gain. Barry N1EU _______________________________________________ TenTec maili; /archives//html/TenTec/2011-11/msg00094.html (10,086 bytes)

Re: [TenTec] Orion gain setting (score: 1): Author: Scott Harwood <scotthsr@earthlink.net>; Date: Wed, 9 Nov 2011 18:26:38 -0500 (GMT-05:00); The reason for the high threshold is this to establish a base of a S9 signal. Signals over S9 will trigger AGC while those below will not. I stated this was for casual operation, with good conditions; /archives//html/TenTec/2011-11/msg00095.html (10,985 bytes)

Re: [TenTec] Orion gain setting (score: 1): Author: Mark <pa5mw@home.nl>; Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2011 10:25:06 +0100; Scott et All, One great advantage in the ORION is you can tweak every different AGC setting, not just the "Prog". So whatever your choice of operating, you can match it in the settings at will. My ex; /archives//html/TenTec/2011-11/msg00099.html (12,230 bytes)

I've had my O2 for five years now and still feel as if I'm using about 10% of its capabilities.

That was the point I was trying to make. There is no single setting, and each AGC setting can be tweaked to the operators preference.

Re: [TenTec] Orion gain setting (score: 1): Author: Barry N1EU <barry.n1eu@gmail.com>; Date: Thu, 10 Nov 2011 08:56:57 -0500; Set AF Gain for the maximum volume you want your ears to experience (with RF Gain temporarily set at maximum), NOT at the maximum setting of the AF Gain control itself.

Not only that, but this thread seems to be confusing the 565 and the 566. They're similar, but not identical as to settings. 73 Ray W2RS ______________________________________________; /archives//html/TenTec/2011-11/msg00105.html (8,230 bytes)

I had a 565 when they first came out, but I don't remember much about the AGC in it. 73 Scott --Original Message-- ________________________________________; /archives//html/TenTec/2011-11/msg00106.html (9,164 bytes)

In days of yore when tubes were king, there were several types of AGC, with only a few having an AGC anywhere nearly as sophisticated as the Orion.; /archives//html/TenTec/2011-11/msg00109.html (10,205 bytes)

The TT Engineers would know for sure. Barry N1EU _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list Ten; /archives//html/TenTec/2011-11/msg00112.html (12,543 bytes)
