Re: [TenTec] Orion/O2 Drift Problem-who is interested in a fix?

I do remember those days!  SB-101, FT-301, Swan "three-drifty".  I also 
remember coast-to-coast phone calls that cost more in a minute than I made 
in an hour and you couldn't hear the other person.  Why relive those days 
when there is a better way?
