It may go against ham culture, but I suggested (long ago) that TT should
sell a support contract for Orion firmware (and maybe hardware). That
would help keep the development wheels turning. To me, it would be
worth $100 a year to get real progress. Of course, there would be
problems running such a program - how do you prevent freeloading, etc.
An open source (community-based) support process would be even better,
but that does not seem to be part of the TT philosophy. Some of their
competitors are doing better on this.
