John,

Try this:

1) Turn on TXloop for antenna 1 on the orion.
2) Connect TXEN to TXOUT on the Orion.

Does the Orion now key when you try to transmit?  It should.

If that works, then connect TXOUT to the Titan key in.  Connect the Titan 
key out to the Orion TXEN.  The Orion should still key.  So exactly what 
does not work.
