Yes, cables, connectors or worse.

So it's more than just no audio. It's no signals either. I would still
bet on the cable connectors behind the front panel need cleaning.

Howard,
I am using 3.032x5 V2 July 2013.
Switching to Ant 2 does not solve the problem. NB/NR/Notch/SAF/AN are
Off as is the SAF/Notch tracking.
Also, there is no audio for the Sub receiver (or internal speaker) when
headphones are used. Left/Right Audio is set to BOTH.
The BARGRAPH immediately to the right of VFO B Frequency does not move
when the sub receiver is used. The Bargraph does function cuz it
switches to SWR in transmit. The thin bar below the Bargraph does move
when Sub AF knob/encoder is adjusted.

Hi Everybody,
The 'audio switch' that you refer to is actually done in the Main RX
dsp. The only way to control it is with the AUDIO menu, where you can
choose the signals for the Speaker, the Right Aux Out, and the Left
Aux Out. The choices for each one will be Main, Sub, or Both.
The Main RX DSP Codec inputs are the Main RX 14 KHz IF, and the MIC
input. The Outputs are Transmit 14 KHz IF, and the Speaker.
The Sub RX DSP Codec inputs are the Sub RX 14KHz IF, and the Aux
Input. The Outputs are the Left Aux Output and the Right Aux Output.
The Main RX DSP sends its digitized receive audio to the Sub RX DSP,
and the Sub RX DSP sends its digitized receive audio and the digitized
Aux Input to the Main RX DSP. This is needed so the Sub RX received
audio can be heard on the Speaker, and the Main RX received audio can
be on either or both of the Aux Outputs. The Main RX needs the Aux
Input so it can be used as an audio input.
So, yes, it is even a little more convoluted that it first appears. By
the way, the Orion II does it a little differently, and there is a 6
channel audio mixer that routes the signals where they need to go.
Maybe that was what you remembered as the 'audio switch'.
I would suggest that you try using the ANT 2 connector, and see if
that changes the Sub RX. Be sure to set the PWR control to OFF so you
don't inadvertently try to transmit into a no antenna condition.
Also, be sure that the NB, the NR, the NOTCH/SAF, and the AN are OFF
for the Sub RX. Also be sure that the SAF/NOTCH tracking between the
Main RX and the Sub RX is off.
Finally, would you report the firmware version that is currently
installed on your Orion. You can see this by pressing and holding the
MENU button until the Startup Screen appears.
