        Heartily recommend the  Green Heron controller. VAST improvement 
over the factory version.
    
        Also, the Orion factory  mast clamps have 2 fatal problems that 
lead to the inevitable loosening  up and antennas turning by themselves. The 
very robust Champion Radio  clamps solve both problems. I've installed dozens 
of the Orions over the years  and virtually 100% of them loosened up.
