Big mistake selling the 238C.
Should have hung onto that.

John,   I hope you can sell the Orion.   If the RIt is still
intermittent,  you may have to make allowances in price for that problem,
as it cannot be fixed at all in some of the radios from what I
understand.   I have now sold all my Ten Tec gear as I don't trust what
is going on now with a new owner.  I got 1500 out of my Orion,   and got
2500 out of the Orion 2.  But both radios were perfect.   I sold the amp
for 1500 and the 238C tuner for 530 bucks.   So,  just got the K line in
here and I am satisfied with the elecraft gear for now.

Good Luck with the sale.     Toby K4NH

I purchased this fully loaded Orion 565 with auto tuner new from
Ten-Tec in August, 2005. My house has always been smoke and pet free,
and the Orion exterior is in like-new condition. The 565 has last been
back to Ten-Tec in June of 2012 for several updates including RIT/XIT
encoder, display, logic board and memory battery replacements. In
addition to the standard roofing crystal filters, this 565 is also
equipped with the optional Ten-Tec 1.8 kHz, 500 Hz & 250 Hz roofing
filters. The Orion is equipped with the latest firmware (3.032x5).

Package includes 565 radio (S/N 03C10675), power cord, hand mike and
manual. The 565 is in good operating condition, although the RIT/XIT
works intermittently. I receive excellent audio reports.

I am selling the 565 because I want to purchase a new Elecraft K3. The
asking price is $1400, which includes shipping (CONUS) in a Ten-Tec
supplied carton. Payment must be by USPS money order or PayPal. If
payment is by check, I will not ship until your check has cleared, and
my bank informs me that the funds have been received. You can contact
me at n9jg "at" ARRL dot net
