[TenTec] [Orion] Audio woes...no more!

[Manuel Alonso]

Hello

Use the PTT line in the back of the rig on the I/O connector and leave
the mike plug in the front for audio only

Rich,
        That has been at the top of my list of things to try.  I fully
suspect RF is getting in from my footswitch and being coupled to the
audio circuitry through that connection to Pin 2.  If the Orion had a
MOX
button, I could test this theory.

        73,  Duane
