[TenTec] Orion Expanded Test Report

[Rod Hotz]

Many thanks for the numbers on the Argonaut V. I was mainly interested in how it compared vs. the K2.
 
Like you, I'm sure, I have lots of great memories of those Sunday mornings with the LW gang.

Rod, I have it at 58/59 dB for IMDDR3 and 66 dB for BDR.
I did not include all radios tested in the list...mainly those
I thought of as potential contest radios.

BTW, I went back and looked carefully at the FT-1000MP,
but I honestly cannot tell if the measurements were at 1 or
5 kHz. That graph is not expanded like some of the later
graphs, so it is very difficult to interpolate the data. In
magnifying it, it looks like more than 1 kHz but less than
5 kHz, so I'm really not sure.

CUL LW,

Bill W4ZV

P.S. I bet nobody else on this reflector knows what "LW" means! ;-)
