[TenTec] Orion Audio

[bobwhite@innercite.com]

Tom,
Have you adjusted TX EQ in the audio menu?  I had to run mine at about
-14dB before it sounded good with my mike.  You should find suggested
settings for TX EQ and SP for most mikes in the instruction manual page 42
(Sept 2003 manual).
Good Luck and 73,
Bob WO3B
