[TenTec] ORIONII_INTERNAL_AT_TUNER

[RM]

The Orion that was delivered to me in Sep 2003 has an LDG tuner that matches
antennas that my Icom 775 wouldn't touch.

According to LDG, the new one they are planning has the same or better
range, and has memory.  I really like the memory idea as ths will speed
tuning even more.  I agree, the current Orion tuner has considerable
range - at least mine sure does (and I don't know whether it is an LDG or
a TT tuner.)  My experience is with the Orion tuner, though I doubt that
changes have been made in the Orion II since they are not mentioned on
the web site as one of the upgrades.

In answer to the other question - it is an internal tuner, and was
described as replacing an existing tuner in the Orion - they do not say
it can be added to an Orion that never had a tuner installed.

        73,  Duane
