Wasn't the problem with the Triton series more related to the transistor
name and the fact that the Triton was a transmitter? I originally had a
Triton II.

Subject: Re: [TenTec] Orion Brand Name
I commented on this back when ten-tec announced their name Orion. I was
wondering if it would of caused a conflict. Apparently, the list members
hadn't seen the Orion brand of home entertainment equipment (VCR TV etc.) as
no one commented. I have the Ten Tec Model 544 that would of been a Triton
digital if Motorola hadn't got into the picture. Since the name Orion is
also the name of some heavenly body maybe no one can claim it????
