[TenTec] Orion II firmware

[John Molenda]

  I will acknowledge that the sweep is slow .  I think the sweep should 
be better than the other guys .  I use the sweep and when I operate at a 
different qth  I find myself looking for it .  I am looking foreword to 
the whole package coming together in the Orion III . I am getting bored 
with this Old  Orion II give us some good news TT and tell us you are 
working on a new  radio to replace the Orion .   John kb2huk
