With all the stuff about the Orion both positive and negative, I'd be willing to trade a great Collins KWM-2A station for an Orion and Amp.

It seems as though over the last year that the repeated posts of a few disgruntled purchasers seem to cloud the truth that the majority of Orion owners are perfectly  happy with their purchase.  These happy owners of the Orion do not post much and many do not post at all.  I personally know several that never post and are very pleased with the Orion.

It is interesting to hear about the problems of the unfortunate few who are unhappy, but some of us may be getting getting a bit weary of hearing the repeated posts of the same people  who are unhappy with the Orion  for whatever reason.

If you are planning on purchasing a new Orion, talk to guys who like the Orion as well as those who don't , and then make your decision based on numerous interviews, and not a vocal unhappy minority who post here a lot. ......really a lot!
