[TenTec] OII Notch Specifications

[Duane Calvin]

For me, the loss of IF notch in the version 2 FW was a big loss.  I keep
saying I'm going back to Ver 1 FW, but never find the time to do it - what
little time I get to play with the radio I try to use on the air.  But I do
miss the IF DSP function(s) (was there something besides the notch that got
removed outside the IF chain?)

I had not thought about the move of the notch between ver 1.3XXXX and the 
ver 2.0X or OII - but I know I have seldom seen any use for it on CW with 10

hz tuning steps for the notch center freq. I work very little SSB but a few 
days ago was trying to use both the AN and the manual notch and neither 
seemed to do much compared to my original Orion. Maybe just bad memory 
dunno.
