[TenTec] psk on orion

[Richard Detweiler]

hi Tom,

the Orion works very well with PSK,  It doesn't need any interfaces, PC Line 
out to Radio Audio in, and Left Audio out to PC Line in.  If the sound card 
is good and there is not grounding problems, it has excellent IMD  better 
than -22 at nearly full power.

Software you use is your preference,  I like the ones that can read 20 or so 
converstaions at once then lets you pounce on one when you are ready to 
transmitt.  It's like haveing multiple chat sessions just like the teenagers 
on chat.

Settings depend alot on the sound card,  have to adjust the mic in for the a 
reasonable audio and the volume control will affect the audio out level.  
Set the Audio input to AUX to prevent any pickup from the Mic and set VOX 
for automatic keying to reduce your cabling needs...  but other than 
that,you should be able to have alot of fun.
