Hello all, I love my OII, but am struggling with RF garbage getting back 
into my TX SSB audio. I have been diligent with all the basics, grounding, 
physical separation of equipment, using ferrite chokes etc. Yes, I am in the 
near field of my antenna but unfortunately I am on a very small lot and not 
many options are available to me on moving my antenna.

My question is why do I have NO problems with my 706MKIIG in the same 
situation? Is it inherant that a hot front end like Orion is just more 
sensitive to RF, or has TT missed the ball somewhere in shielding the Orion? 
I would really like to keep the OII, but if I can't clean it up, I may have 
to change. The rig has been back to TT for repair of another item and has 
had a recent bench check with an all ok checklist done. Any replies are 
appreciated as always. 73, Todd - KT0DD
