[TenTec] Orion 2 SUB receiver Question

[Carl Moreschi]

You can also just run a small rg174 coax from the sub-receiver antenna 
connection to the spare jack.  Then select no antenna at all for the sub 
and connect an antenna for the sub to the spare jack.

This is exactly how I use an SDRplay as a panadapter with my Orion.

I have this written up in the manual for my N4PY Orion software.  You 
can download this manual from my website at n4py.com
