[TenTec] Orion II firmware

[Walt Amos]

Ah, Yes, will the Orion III have a separate 32bit DSP receiver for the 
sweep, Wahoo how important is that ? Will it have a second receiver of the 
same quality as the main receiver ? Wahoo, how important is that ? I, alas, 
use 2.039d and am thrilled with it so far, but I don't use the dumb sweep at 
all. Can probably count on two hands the times I have used the second 
receiver!

Would you say " I AM A HAPPY CAMPER ? ".
