[TenTec] [Orion] Orion II and headphone audio ?

[RM]

I've noticed the same issue with my Orion II; great audio with the speaker
and not as great with the headphones plugged into the Orion's headphone
jack.

I solved the problem by plugging my headphone into the Icom SP-20 External
Speaker.  Looks like TenTec needs to fix the Orion's phone jack circuitry.

Turn your af gain to 50% and set the rf gain to where you just can hear the
band noise.

fine on my original Orion, the audio is now distorted. Bandwidth is not a
factor. If I reduce the RF gain to 70 it is not distorted. It does not seem
to make any difference at what pitch I am copying CW. I have tried a couple
of system resets while retaining memories, and also not saving memories. Any
ideas?
