[TenTec] Digital on Orion II

[John Simon]

Many thanks for the reply Peter.  I've set my OII up the same way ie User I 
is voice and User 2 is for Digital.  I'll send you a copy of my settings 
tomorrow as it's a little late for this elderly lad to be looking at small 
typings.

Sometimes I pretend to be normal, but it gets boring.
         So I go back to being me!
