I had no problems at all with my Orion and only the power distribution
change on my O II. I'm trying to be "fair and balanced". I complain about
the delayed firmware, but the reliability of the radios has not been an
issue at all. And, they are in heavy use.

Subject: Re: [TenTec] Repair history for Orion
purchased my orion-I shortly after it first came out. died the day i
received it. been back at least a couple of times since that first
repair--i lose track. usually comes back with a report saying "bad
vias." :) lots of money spent to repair it over the years.
my pegasus had to go back several times.
i have a rx-350 that's busted too, but i don't plan to send it in.
