[TenTec] ten tec orion receiver opinions -

[john ferro]

i've used some great receivers over the years - my favorites are the drake r7, aor 7030, icom r75. among a few transceivers. i have the opportunity to purchase a ten tec orion 1. the sherwood engineering receiver reviews rate the orion at the top of the list. i would like to hear from orion users regarding the receiver in this radio - i am a ham also, but my interests really are with dxing the tropical, MW and the LW bands i.e. weak signal dx - if the receiver is good and i purchase the radio i can transmit to boot! having owned this rig how would you rate the receiver vs. other radios you have used? - is this transceiver attenuated on the MW and LW bands like most transceivers are? - is the receiver in the orion that good? would this radio be good for my purposes - thanks again in advance. sincerely, john ki4ucw
