It sounds like you're using an 'original' Orion, not an Orion II. Firmware
version 2.06x is for the 'original' Orion (565), so you won't be able to
load version 2.044A since it's only for the Orion II (566).

Subject: [TenTec] Orion ll Firmware 2.044A Will Not Load
Current Firmware Version installed is 2.06b14
In trying to install 2.044A, I consistently receive the error
Communications
with the radio failed, and so on. I'm using a USB to Serial Port
converter
which has been running with this radio without any problems. In fact, I
loaded 2.06b14 using this setup.
I don't believe it's the USB-to-Serial converter, since I control the
radio
and logging functions with DxBase 2007 without any issues. (baud rate set
to 57600, Word Length set to 8, Stop Bits set to 2, and assigned to
comport
5). I've not had any problems loading the previous versions with the
USB/Serial converter, or any problems with DxBase at the above settings.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
