[TenTec] Elmer Question

[John Rippey]

Can someone tell me what their experience has been with the Orion as 
compared to the OMNI VI (or VI+) in day-to-day operating?

Over the weekend there was a QRP event, and around here there were lots of 
static crashes on 40 meters. So we had weak signals and lots of QRN. Would 
anyone say that it would have been easier to make out those QRP signals in 
those conditions with an Orion?

Obviously the Orion is designed for contesters but what I'm curious about 
is how it does vis a vis its predecessor in ordinary use.

Thanks for any input.
