I was not blaming the Orion. You can't fix the problem by changing 
someting in the Orion. You have to look to the surrounding environment. 
And I wouldn't rule out the power supply that was added as the Kenwood 
has a built in power supply so there is a second piece of equipment that 
changed in the station in addition to the Orion itself.... but I 
mentioned that in my previous post. If the power supply is generating 
sufficient, clean DC power and absolutely everything else is the same in 
his station then more likely stray RF is coupling back into the Orion 
via one of its other interconnects (mic, key, paddles, computer, etc.). 
Of course the RF that is causing this now was there before with the 
Kenwood but for what ever reason the Kenwood just wasn't as sensitive to 
it in that station configuration.
