[TenTec] Orion II Firmware Status Update April 16

[John Graves]

John,

Welcome back to TT although I would speculate the excitement was not 
what you expected.  As a quiet champion of the Jupiter, I hope to see it 
appear back on the development calendar in the future.  Of course, I 
have preferences, and would like to see a PSK keyboard and display, but 
my green screen is probably in the way for that.   I just wanted to say 
thanks for jumping into the fray...with a great jump, I think.
