[TenTec] Orion 565 Firmware Released

[William Miner]

John,
 
A  BIG thank you for your efforts.  
 
At first blush everything seems to be working great. Receive audio quality and NR are much inproved. Also I like the looks of the scan.  It now seems to have just one sweep width but the display is much improved.
