That's not normal.  I would do a full reset as follows.

1) Power off Orion.

2) Power On holding the VFO B LCK button.

3) Continue holding LCK button until the radio says "Battery Failure".

4) Power off Orion.

5) Power on holding "Main RX/TX" button.

6) Continue holding this button until the radio says reset complete.

7) Do not clear any settings when asked to do so.

8) Power the Orion off and back on one more time.



Write down all your settings first as this will reset everything. 
Sometimes there is a stray value left in battery backed up RAM that 
causes weird things to happen.

I have to re-input that setting every time I operate, which is tedious. Back-up battery was changed about a year ago and in any case every other setting changed from default is retained, except for the one I mention. Is this a common problem please or is it an oddie on my radio? Does anyone know of a fix or work-around? I have tried storing it in "USER" menu but it doesnt hold even with that.
