Stuart,
Thanks for your response. But you are missing the point.
I know how to fix the problem externally.
But the question is why I don't need to do anything with the old TS930s or
Elecraft K2. No problem with BCI at all.
Just Orion can't handle it. That is a shame.
Orion over all has much better RX - THE BEST.
BCI problem is simple to fix with just ECO. I already did half of the work.
Thanks, Mark WQ7X
