HI Carl,
Thanks for the reply, didn't mean to misrepresent your product. I seem
to remember asking you about the control software for another radio and
I thought you told me it would need an external box. Thanks for
clearing that up for me with the Orion. Makes the Orion look more
promising. Does your software have its own voice memories that the
Orion can send also?

You don't need a separate keyer box with my N4PY Oroon software. My
software does have its own memories but it uses the Orion's built in
keyer to send the memories.
The Orion firmware does not allow access to the Orion's built in
voice keyer and memories. So no software can provide exactly what
you are asking for.
But my software can at least provide this for CW.

John,
I have an Orion II and it is by far the best rig I've ever
known. I have to leave out Elecraft K3S, never had one but that
would be on my list if I was going to replace my Orion.
Your questions are about remote control of the Orion. This is
beyond my scope, all operating has been done direct but I hope
the following will be of some help to you.
I use N3FJP software which has function keys to send cw on the
Orion with a keyer such as Winkeyer. What you send is
completely programable with the N3FJP software including sending
cw by keyboard.
I have a voice keyer by MFJ but hardly use it. Just as easy to
use the voice software memories on Orion.
The Winkeyer is another winner. It is available as a kit, easy
to put together and inexpensive.
Essentially the pc under control of N3FJP keys the Winkeyer
which then keys the Orion. I suppose latency due to computer
interaction is minimized with the buffer of the Winkeyer.
If you have never used N3FJP you are in for a pleasant surprise.
It is intuitive, easy to use and bullet proof. Through the
years of my use and that of our Citrus County Amateur Radio Club
field day, I haven't lost a single QSO due to shut downs,
different operators, even emergency shut down due to June
thunderstorms.
If you have any other questions, please reply my email:

Hope this helps.....73 John Bescher, N4DXI

Subject: [TenTec] Orion computer control software
Does anyone on the list know of computer control software for
the Ten Tec
Orion that will let you control the CW memories and voice keyer
memories
through the software? I have been looking around on the
internet but
haven't found any yet. N4PY software has its own memories built
in from
what I understand, but then I would need a separate keyer box
between the
radio and computer.
I am getting my station set up for remote control over the
internet and
trying to keep it as simple as possible. The Orion looks like a
great rig
and would definitely think about getting one if the CW keyer and
voice
keyer could be run by software.
