I also have the white dot next to the STEP value on my Orion II (2.030) using 
COLOR 3.

I also have a rare problem with audio when selecting BinRX=Main (AUDIO Menu) and 
is related to having NR and/or Notch on, as far as I can tell. With headphones, 
audio turns into very loud "digital" noise which varies in intensity with the 
sweep! When I pull the headphones plug out, the noise is present through the 
speaker.

73,
