AMEN to that. I own two of the out of production radios and I'm still happy
AND hearing
stations that other radios cannot! My old Omni VI+ is very good and better
than most rigs
from the land of the rising sun and the Jupiter has a better receiver!
Don't lament the Orion going out of production, you radio will not stop working
when the
assembly line stops. Look at the old Collins rigs. They are still running.

When I lamented that I now own a radio that's out of production, a very
good friend quipped "That's probably better than owning some of the
radios that are still in production."
To which I say "Hear! Hear!"
