[TenTec] Orion Shaft Encoder Replacement

[John T. Fleming]

Bob,

Go to the Ten-Tec web site and down load the instructions for the sweep mod.
In there are a lot of pictures on taking the front panel apart.  I hope this
helps.

73,
John

The RIT encoder on my Orion I has failed and the factory is sending me a new
one.  The front panel has to be "completely disassembled" to install the new
encoder.  The meaning of this may be clear when I open up the Orion, but I
would appreciate general or specific guidance from anyone who has done this
before starting.  Is the procedure documented somewhere?  If you know of any
be carefuls and make sure you don't do somethings I would appreciate those
as well.
