Yeah.. I just thought it was an odd way to state it the way 
they did..  to me.. it almost conveyed the thought... " hey 
we appreciate getting your 40 bucks but you probably don't 
need this thing.. just unplug it if the noise bothers you"

I have 68 year old ears.. but to me, it is very quiet...

Congrats on the Orion.. I am still recovering from a new roof 
installation ($5000+) so I will have to struggle along with 
my Jupiter for a while.

PS: I did check you out in QRZ Bill, to see if you were a 
neighbor..  Your new call is similar to mine.. except I went 
for the initials instead of a form of my name..
