It’s entirely reasonable that some things from that era are not repairable

Disappointing but a fact of life.

        Well said, CA.

        I am amazed how long these radios last,
        and how hard TT works to maintain so
        many models which are out of production.

        I suspect TenTec would be on better fiscal
        footing if could sell more new radios, and
        spend less time keeping the old fleet
        afloat indefinitely.

I agree with this STRING about the QUESTIONABLE T-T STELLAR SERVICE.

I too had the same and surprising service response with my Delta-II request.

I lost maybe $300.- just trying to get T-T to do the work; it never got
done.

I was dissapointed.

Just three months after I purchased a NEW OMNI-VII.

One would think that they would service a good customer.

It was unfortunate that many Orion users jumped ship a few years back.  A
radical turn-around started two years ago  with John Henry's involvement
and version 3 firmware development.  I have no doubt that it will
continue.  I'm glad I held on through thick and thin.

Several people that I know, including myself, were very happy with the O2
for quite a while.  We became disenchanted with the upgrades because they
added features but also broke things along the way.  The time to fix the
broken things began taking longer and longer.
