[Orion] Hash noise OrionII

[Mike Bragassa]

If I increase my volume too much (...and I don't mean "floorboard") my radio starts making a very loud hash sound. The only remedy is to turn the radio off and then on. It happens whether I am using the speaker or headphones.

I had the radio into TenTec and they say they cannot replicate the problem. I have a problem accepting this statement as it is too easy for me to replicate it.....too easy!

It cost me several hundred dollars to hear this.....

On a second note, I also said that the display goes blank when transmitting... Another easy problem to replicate. Ten Tec could not..

I can live with the dead display when transmitting; but find the hash noise very irritating and inconvenient.

Has  anyone else experienced this hash noise and what was the remedy?
