Just posted a firmware update for the Orion II Model 566 at the TenTec
website.
http://www.tentec.com/pages/Transceiver-Downloads.html
Scroll down to the 566 section, and Ver3.029 is in the right column.
Download it as usual to "install the installer".
Changes include:
Improve post-AGC clean-up filters to improve receive audio
This build is a result of customer's input and it improves / cleans the
receive audio by incorporating a filter that cleaned
up undesirable spikes/transients after the AGC code. It was verified by
the original customer, and by the beta team.
If anyone has issues with this build, please let me know so that we can
correct it or improve it.
Thanks,
John Henry, KI4JPL

Oh, that arrived as called for - I have for some time been wondering
about the "cracklings" in the Rx audio, not being able to decide whether
it was a HW problem, an artifact introduced with the 3.036 FW, or
atmospheric conditions, now that has been explained and fixed in one go
- fix confirmed here!
The audio "bleed through" "problem" persists though, well the above was
much more important to have fixed - Thanks again John Henry and TT!
(And by the way, it's now again possible to update the radio through a
Prolific USB-Serial adapter running from WinXP on a VirtualBox in Linux!
That was somehow broken with 3.026, but I never properly investigated
what was wrong)
