[Orion] Orion Aux I/O socket

[John T. Fleming]

Dick,

The cable that comes with the Orion is the same cable as the Jupiter.  The
only problem I notice is the audio from the sub-receiver goes down when I
turn up the audio from the main receiver.  I was playing with PSK31 listing
on the sub-receiver while using the main receiver on SSB.  Look at page 28
of the September manual.  The accessory cable only describes 5 connection,
even though the AUX I/O shows 8.

Have fun with the new Orion.  Make sure you have a big 3 ring binder to
accumulate all of the ideas on how to get the most from the receiver.  I
have all of Doug Smith's stuff in mine along with lots of other items.

73,
John

My new Orion will arrive this week and I have downloaded the manual. 
I had been using SignaLink SL-1+ with the Jupiter.  I notice that the 
AUX socket on the Jupiter is 5 pin and the Orion is an 8 pin.  I am 
wondering if I can just plug the 5 pin into the Orion 8 pin socket?

The pin out is as follows:

5- pin:				8-pin:

1- audio in			1- audio in
2- ground			2- ground
3- PTT				3- PTT
4- audio out			4- left AUX out ***
5- spare				5- spare
				6- right AUX out
				7- FSK
				8- NC

I will not be using FSK any time soon.  Can I use the "4- left AUX 
out for PSK 31 to the computer??  (BTW what is the difference between 
4 and 6 above??)

Thanks,

Dick, N5XRD
