[TenTec] Orion 1 Dim Display Cure

[Barry N1EU]

Other than finding a buyer for your used Orion, could you perhaps share
what all you did to it so it can be documented and potentially duplicated?
An LCD display far better than the original new display is something many
owners would appreciate knowing about!

Thanks & 73,
