You can load in a previous version of  the software, I did it on my O  1 I 
prefer 1.372 so after it tried the ver 2 I went back to  the old one.  just a 
master reset, reload, and all the older versions are available on line  
somewhere.  I don't know about all the stories  being bantered about  on the 
reflector, but there is a small core of very critical folks here ( 6 or 8  
folks) who 
continually post and repost the few things that need work on the  Orion and 
Orion II. 
 
 If you have a question, please call the folks at Ten Tec. If I had  believed 
all the "information" on the Ten Tec reflector I would not have bought  this 
fine rig.  it works very well for me and I am amazed by its  capability.  the 
complaints here on the Ten Tec reflector  are mostly  about  small problems 
that will most likely be fixed in future versions of  soft ware.  Its like 
buying a brand new car and complaining the ash tray is  not the right size.. I 
love 
mine and it works very well.  Bye the way this  is the  TEN TEC reflector, 
not just the  Orion reflector.. 
 
I may be one of the not so silent majority that actually enjoys the  Orion..

Are the  old versions from ten tec forever lost when you update? Can you 
reinstall say  the first version that 
came with an orion 1 on an orion 2. This may seem a  dumb question but I'm 
not computer savvy.

Also I have read that the  only version with acceptable audio transmit width 
for ssb with any fidelity is  the 
original orion with the first firmware - true ?
If  all I can get with an orion 2 is firmware with severe rolloff at 200Hz - 
and  nothing you can do about 
it - then I know I don't want an orion  2.
