As in opposite to the way it needs to be in order to work correctly.

The Orion doesn't enable xmsn of the amplifier, the amplifier enables
xmsn by the Orion.  The amplifier doesn't key the Orion (qsk loop),
the Orion keys the amplifier.

In other words, switch the cable plugs on either the amplifier or the
Orion (but not both).  Hopefully, that's clear enough.
