[TenTec] E-Ham Orion Reviews.

[Richard Detweiler]

For my 2 cents worth,

Even Yuri, one of the most critical of the Orion, had a better review and 
still he gave the rig a 4 out of 5.

Your comments about the reviewer never owning one may be very correct.

I haven't put in a review yet on the rig,  I've been holding back on that.  
Perhaps it's time to come up with something to say.
