[TenTec] Orion III

[Rsoifer at aol.com]

Bsrry and Carl,
 
We're all entitled to our opinions, based on our own experience.  All  I 
can say is the NR (2.044A and 2.039d) helps me pull out weak CW signals on 80  
and 160, especially with a wide roofing filter.  It also attenuates highs  
on SSB, so it can use improvement.  This is, however, a firmware issue, not  
a hardware issue.

Nope, not all of us.  In fact, if my O2 (or O3) was missing  a NR
button, I wouldn't be disappointed.

As far as the NR in the  FT5K magically making unreadable signals
readable, I'd love to hear a  recording demonstrating that.  Until
then, I remain  skeptical.
