Dumb question Tommy, but why didn't you give up on the amp instead of
giving up on the radio?  Orion works fb now with Alpha & Acom amps. 
You could have relegated the TT amp to backup role until the keying
problem was sorted out.  I don't get it, considering you readily admit
to the superior performance of the Orion.
