[RTTY] TenTec Orion or Icom 756 Pro III

[Andrei Nevis]

Bernd,
I bought PRO-III after I read an article from Don, AA5AU.
It works very good on RTTY, in fact I bought in for RTTY mode, and I am happy. 
So, I would recommend this Radio. 
Just one thing - You must have an interface (a keyer) between PRO-III and your Amplifier.
I burnt Radio (transmitting hercone or something) out just after 1 month of use Kenwood TL-922A without the keyer. This is silly but that what has happenned.
Now I have Ameritron Keyer for $45 and everything is working very good. Well, I lost  1 year warranty for the Radio because someone fixed that hercone for me :)

I like Orion a great deal for RTTY. I ran twin Orions here in the CQ WW
RTTY and they helped me take first place world-wide SOAB HP. I think that
says they're pretty good on that mode.
