[TenTec] 7/20/05: Ten-Tec announces ORION II

[Richard Detweiler]

>>From the introduction of the Orion until present day, my concerns about 
>>price/usability/bugs have kept me from becoming an Orion owner.

I can understand this,  yet on the otherhand,  I've enjoyed the benifits of 
the Orion I for nearly 2 years and will enjoy the added benifits of the 
Orion II when they ship.

Being somwhat serious about contesting/DX hunting,  I've proven to myself 
that the Orion's receiver is far better than anything out there.

If an Orion III comes along in 2 or 3 years,  I'll probably go for that too 
if it gives me an advantage.

The OMNI D was the ultimate rig in its time,  now they are $300 on the 
market,  can't last forever,  technology moves on.

Best wishes,
Rich
