[TenTec] ORION 565

Holger I wonder if it might be the power distribution board.  The power 
distribution board is a very simple fix.  You replace 3 electrolytic 
capacitors.  You should try and get good quality, low ESR value caps with a 
HIGHER voltage rating than the original.  Ron, N6IE, describes the fix on his 
website.

 Even if this is not the problem it is good to do the fix

 Good luck.

Hello
Now i am a proud Owner from the famouse ORION 565, make the Softwareupdate to 
the latest  Version 2.064XX11 and DSP 2.08b84, the Results now is fantastic.
But, sometimes after switched on the Orion I, the Display with all Information 
are not coming on ,only white Display, Boot- Error or is this normal ?
These Troubble i has had also before i make the above Update !
Perhaps some Voltages inside are not correct?
Maybe Help is possible?
