[TenTec] Problem (reboot) with my Orion II when I switch it on

[Cedric Baechler]

Hello Alan & all,

I just got a message from the Ten-Tec support and they'll send me 2 new 
capacities to replace C6 & C7 on the power distribution board (A9). It 
seems that the problem with these capacities is recurrent and affects 
many Orion's user...
