[TenTec] Orion I , worth the trouble?

[wt4t at reagan.com]

I was planning to trade off some collins equipment and received a offer  to trade the collins ,about 1100.00, for a Orion I. Is this a rig to stay away from? Has tuner, all filters, updated to blue screen. I have 2 worries,1 that ten tec is not going to be around as we know it and 2nd , there are major chips or chip that is no longer able to get ,from anyone ,yet alone Ten Tec. I have a closet kilowatt, and a mix of other ten tec gear , always liked it. If anyone has thoughts about this ,please get back.
