The same thing happened here - just when a tough-to-work station finally came back to me!

I am running the keyer through the accessory jack - hadn't thought of that possibility. At the time of the failure I was running both receivers and the Sweep function, and so was pushing the CPU pretty hard. I backed off on the demands I was making, and had no repetition of the problem.

I have, at times, also had the Sub Receiver start to generate a loud buzz with no intelligible audio output. The RF portion appears to be working - at least the S meter looks right. The only way I have found out of this is a reboot.

Hmmm - this could be why I have NOT been plagued with my Orion losing audio. Mine is setup to key with either the computer or with an MFJ 493 keyer to the accessory cable. When I set the Orion up I used keys with plugs that fit, so the Begali is connected to the MFJ, the Brass Racer to the Orion. And I am not enamoured of the Vibroplex' feel so I generally twist the knob on the keyer and grab the B. I only use the second paddles and the internal keyer on the rare occasions when I run across someone sending QLF - and I haven't had that thrill during a 'test. 73 Pete Allen AC5E
