Just a not to encourage others.
This past Saturday, I completed the version 2 hardware mod to my Orion 1.  It 
wasn't that bad and took me about 2 hours.
The biggest problem I had was trying to solder the jumper wire to the SMT 
connections.  I finally realized that the picture in the documentation was 
magnified and that my 22 ga wire was probably too large. Made a jumper out of 
some 28 ga wire (one of the conductors inside a computer cable that I had cut 
for some other purpose). That went much eaiser.
The biggest help was my lighted magnifier.
73,
Mark
