[TenTec] Orion II display

[Rsoifer at aol.com]

Hi,
 
At the risk of starting yet anotherl flame-fest, I want to say something  
favorable about the much-maligned Orion II display.
 
One day last week, I switched from the spectrum display to the  waterfall.  
Y'know what?  The thing works!  Unlike the spectrum,  it's virtually 
instantaneous, with audible signals taking less than a second to  show up on the 
screen.  It took a few days to get used to, but I find it  quite useful and 
leave it on all the time.  If you're still using the  spectrum sweep display, 
try it.  You'll like it.
 
My one request is for a selectable display bandwidth, similar to what was  
available for the spectrum sweep with the old firmware.  I used to run  that 
at 36 kHz rather than 72.  That's why I'm copying the factory on this  
email.
