Good Morning All, and always glad to help Don! 

Even better ... your Orion is now back to running 
and you can return to enjoying it on the bands.

Billy, 
Thanks to all who replied to my call for help. 
Great place for old guy that doesn't think like he use too. 
You were right Billy. When I did the RAM clear it ask me if I had a RX366. 
I was thinking of the internal sub receiver as the RX366. When I changed the 
answer 
from yes to no and finished the procedure all is now ok. Again, thanks a lot 
to all.

Don, 

Do you have the optional RX-366 
Sub receiver installed? 

(Not the factory standard sub-RX) 

That setup question is only for IF 
you have the optional RX-366 IIRC? 

If you have the stock sub-RX ... 

Try your setup again, and say NO 
when asked about the sub RX. 

Let us know what happens please. 

Hope this helps!
