I am a happy Orion owner!
I am looking to upgrade from a Centaur to either a Centurion or a Alpha 91B.
I stopped at TT last week to see / hear / play the Centurion. Very nice,
quiet fan, pretty quiet QSK relay noise.
Also, I visited my friend that has the 91B for sale (excellant condition) I
like the looks, it's pretty quie also, the WSK (Vacuum Relay) seems OK, but
maybe a little noisier than the Centurion. AND NOT INSTANT ON ( 2-3 minute warm
up)
Both have cheap tubes and are well made, and have high review marks.
They are both nice, but different for sure.
I would appreciate any feedback as to what you all think about the two units.
I need to decide soon, or the Alpha will be gone. Have been trying to decide
for 2 weeks now!!
Thanks in advance,
73,
Lee, KC9CDT
