[TenTec] Orion Main and Sub frequency difference

[Ron]

Carl,
I've checked very carefully on my ORION II and there is 4 hertz of
difference between the Sub Receiver and Main Receiver at 15.0 MHz.  This
might give a very mild reverb effect on a music note...  But I can not
really observe it at all, unless I listen to the CW offset to get a pure
note.  I'm not sure if I'm perfectionist enough to make an adjustment to
align these two receivers to this level or not.  Maybe on a steady carrier
would warble enough that I would want to.

But it would be nice to have it as a feature in the N4PY software.

Bill,

I don't know why I never thought of this before but I have a diversity mode
in my N4PY Orion program.  It sets the two radios to the same frequency as
you tune
with the remote tuning pod.  I can easily put in a user configurable
frequency difference in my program to handle a few hertz offset.  I am going
to add this to the next version of my program.  Thanks for the idea.
