Enjoyed your comments Yuri.  The smallest RIT step
seems to be 10hz so I'm not sure you could offset one
receiver the slight amount needed to cancel the
warble, which is much less than 10hz.

Yes, purists remark the Orion isn't capable of "true"
diversity because the receivers aren't phase-locked. 
I am sure enjoying this not-so-true diversity - phase
lock isn't necessary for what I'm doing.
