[John L Merrill]

Carl:
I have seen where some have actually had to set there com port to 57600 to
make the update work. I wonder why?

The baud rate you set your comport at is overridden by the Orion update
software.  The Orion only works at 57600 baud.  The speed you configure the
comport to in your windows settings is meaningless.
