FWIW, I had the URM-25F sig gen out and was trying the comparison to Barry
(N1EU) and Phil's (W9XX) posted results on the S-meter for the O II.

Here's what I got.
uV Theory My Orion Posted Orion II
5 S5.7 S3.8 S3
15 S7.3 S5.8 S6
50 S9 S8.5 S9
150 S9+10dB S9+10dB s9+20dB
500 S9+20dB S9+20dB s9+35dB
1500 s9+30dB S9+32dB S9+45dB
5000 S9+40dB S9+45dB S9+55dB
These results are for my original Orion running firmware 2.054 at 14.200
MHz. Obviously the decimal S-meter readings are to be taken with a grain of
salt. But I've seen a lot worse!
