[TenTec] Strange De-sense of Orion II

[Paul Rubin]

Thanks Carl, but my problem must be different as it happens with Ant 1, or 
2, both of which have antennas connected, and also the sub-receiver keeps 
working.

I spoke with Paul Clinton at TT and he said that he has never heard of the 
problem, so its off to TN.
