[TenTec] Orion Threshold and RF Gain Settings

[Barry N1EU]

I honestly don't think anything is gained by twiddling the AGC Threshold independently from the front panel RF Gain control.  Have at it, but I fear the perception that there's something to gain (no pun intended) by doing this will needlessly complicate things for Orion newbies (and oldies).

Just set the threshold low (<1uV) for all AGC speeds and leave it there.  Advance RF Gain just above the point where you can hear the band noise.  Done.

73 & Happy Holidays,
Barry N1EU
