You also need a battery reset. See below.
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.

My Ten-Tec Orion II (purchased in 2007) seems to be a little sick. Serial
Number: 01C10877
When I turned it on this morning, after about 5 seconds of normal receive,
suddenly I noticed that the S-Meter is reading 30 over 9. I can hear
signals in the background, but they do not seem to be as strong as usual,
like the RF Gain is up...but it isn't. I can vary the RF Gain from 1-100
and it doesn't do any good.
I have connected several different antennas, switched bands, etc., all with
the same results. The rig transmits fine.
I did a Master Reset twice and it did not solve the problem.
I'm using software version 3.029.
Got any ideas?
