I'm not sure what your point is here. The update is hard to find?
Maybe.
Kenwood's instructions on how to do the upgrade are 100% better than
TT's. Illustrations and careful explanation.
One thing you might not like is having to open up the TS2000, move
cables around, and flip a switch in order to upgrade firmware.
That might be a good thing compared to Orion. I have this nagging
feeling that by sending the wrong commands from my computer, I could
turn the Orion into a dead brick.
One of the more interesting ways to check software and computer
peripherals is to send them many random ASCII strings. This will
sometimes have spectacular results - smoke, flames, etc. Probably not
a good thing to try on the Orion.
