[TenTec] [Orion] [orion565] new firmware

[Rick Williams]

Barry I just retried AM (100 watts into a dummy load) and MON function and I
cannot duplicate the problem you have report?

The MON worked on AM and came back to receive just fine?  When I put the rig
back on an antenna the CW QSO I was listening to was still there.  O1 and
version 2.056.

Not sure what's going on?

I just checked the AM monitor on the O1 v2.056.  Good news is that the
monitor functions fine when you first go into AM transmit.  Bad news is that
when you release transmit, the receiver goes deaf and required a power
on/off cycle to bring it back.
