Yuri, with all respect, I tested and have "knowledge" of
otherwise.
I can't have "proof" (as you requested because that means someone
else must be here) unless you are willing to accept the president
of the Bavarian Contest Club as my proof - he was the only person
in the shack listening to my tests.  If you are willing to accept
him, then I indeed have "proof" that the Orion has a better
receiver than the K2. I own a K2 and love my K2 and am soon going
to order a second K2 (but with 100w this time) however, I don't
see these K2's in competition to my Orion.  They are used for
other circumstances. Period.

I'm tired of hearing comparisons between the K2 and the Orion.
The two
radios are as different as night and day.

Who is comparing radios?
What was being compared is the receiver sensitivity, noise floor
and weak
signal discernability. Subject came up and was being discussed.
Fact is that K6SE
found K2 hearing stuff that Orion and bunch of others could not.
If you
tested and have proof of otherwise, please describe your setup
and results.
Sure the radios are in different league and huge price
difference, but one
can put up with some deficiencies in $800 radio vs. "ultimate"
$3.6k radio.
Sorry if I tired you. You may use delete key any time you get
tired.
Can we discuss topics rationally or is this really TT Worshipers
Cult forum?

Yuri
