[TenTec] ORION DISPLACES ELECRAFT K2 FOR TOP RX PERFORMANCE

I just compared the Orion specs against those posted on the Elecraft web site.  If the ARRL lab's test results confirm Ten-Tec's
posted specification, the Orion will blow the K2 out of the water in terms of dynamic range, IP3 and phase noise.  Ip2 is equal to
the K2.

I also like the following note...

"Internal birdies: None stronger than specified sensitivity."  That's a pretty strong statement toward Ten-Tec's ability to
adaquately shield the receiver.
