Hello Tommy I think the orion is not bad. But what's about the "handling" of it? Has it an intuitive "menu" to make all the adjustments? Do you need really this performance (like the IC-7800) for approx. <5% of all the very hard situations? Or are some other TRX also very good one (TS-870 / TS-2000 / TS-480) and (like a goodie) so much cheaper?? Dan, HB9DDS
