All of Rob Sherwood's comments in the quote were in reference to the Orion II
(Not the Orion). If you read the full
text of Rob's post (Yahoo ICOM-7800 Group MSG# 4755) you will also find Rob's
comment "After working with T-T, they redesigned the front end to my spec, and
eliminated the two amps, and put all 7 roofing filters in one bank." I'm
guessing Rob has a reasonable working knowledge of the performance issues of
the Orion and Orion II. As I recall, I also think he had some influence on the
firmware not too long ago. Maybe someone else remembers?
