[TenTec] Orion Ergonomics, Key Clicks, etc.

[Martin AA6E]

"Clicking on a packet spot"?  That's not part of my Orion's repertoire! 
  If you are using software to control the Orion, then that's where the 
problem is.

I agree that Orion's front-panel behavior is not perfect.  I don't know 
if other rigs in its class are better.  After all, these are very 
complicated rigs with lots of configuration options.  I don't want to 
pay $3-15K per rig to analyze them all.

My TS-520S is very intuitive in comparison, but I'm not going back any 
time soon.
