[TenTec] More operating info Orion

[Greg Fischer]

RigBlaster does not support particular radios.  That is up to the software you are using.  If you are looking for just a straight thru isolation box from the computer to the radio, I would recomment Donner's.  Just choose the one for the Pegasus/Jupiter and it should work great.  You do not even need the RCA patch assembly that comes with the rig as the donner interface terminates in a 5 pin DIN.

Hope that helps.

  Hi Tom,

  Are there are set of pre-made cables for interconnecting the Orion to the
  computer? Such as with an isolation transformer in between? And what are the
  total amount of cables from the computer to the Orion and what inputs and
  outputs are used to be able to use multiple types of digital modes to
  include RTTY?

  Do you know if the Orion will be supported by the Rig Blaster?

  Thanks,

  Jim
