Huh?  A good manual is one of the most fundamental elements of a 
successful product. A product is not finished (and should not be shipped) until 
a GOOD manual for it is part of the package.  FWIW, as much as I like 
TenTec radios, I have never been thrilled with the manuals, and they have 
gotten worse, not better, over the years. I have not seen the Orion manual. 

It is not OUR job to produce a manual, it is TenTec's job. If their manual is 
lousy, hold THEIR  feet to the fire.
