I think they should have! I am liking 1.371 better all the time. K4ia "Buck" Fredericksburg, Virginia USA _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com htt
They are going to squeeze UPS to reveal the delivery and either: 1. Tax you on the insured amount 2. Send you a demand based on the fact you received something K4ia "Buck" Fredericksburg, Virginia US
Choose the ProIII if you don't mind listening to buzzy-raspy sounding CW and a wide-as-a-barn-door front end that lets in close-by strong-signal interference. Be prepared to memorize a complicated me
I have both a Field and an Orion. The Field looks like a shiny Ferrari - the Orion looks like an old VW Microbus with paint missing. The Field has no firmware to glitch. Things may not be changeable
Bill - I agree totally with your comments. Under the hood, the Orion is the Ferrari. Yaesu's key clicks are legendary and their stonewalling was inexcusable. And as another poster mentioned, TT servi
I am not sure I agree with you about the NR function but you obviously now more than I do about the technical aspects. Here is what I hear: In 1.371, the NR sounds like a squelch. The radio gets very
I've found that if I can't copy the signal without NR, I can't copy it with NR -- Just last night I was working a guy who I could not copy with the NR off. I tried adjusting the RF gain (which doesn'
The NR function works great with V2.055! My reference was 1.3672 , my Orion's original firmware. Therein lies the problem. If you never heard how well it sounded in 1.371, you don't know what you are

I agree with you 100%. I believe I read somewhere that the NR, Auto Notch and all that had been moved to the audio chain and that would explain some of the problems you note. Maybe someone else can e
With 2.0555, I hear no difference in noise no matter where the filter taps are set. If I set them as low as 32, the bandpass is too wide, and there is no difference in the noise. Advancing the NR to
I do send my comments to D&B and all I ever get is their auto reply. TT would do themselves a favor if they engaged in this discussion. If there is something wrong with the NR reduction scheme in 1.3
Are owners of the O2 in for a two or three year stint like the Classic Orion owners experienced? We are still in a "stint." There have been changes but 2.055 is not "right" either. k4ia Craig "Buck"
moved the 1khz filter to the 1.8khz slot Unless you only run CW, you might want to put the 1.8 khz back in and put the 1 khz aside instead. k4ia Craig "Buck" Fredericksburg, Virginia USA ____________
Gary Thank you so much for bringing back a blast from the past for me. I remember lettering that in Olde English in my mechanical drawing class and hanging it in the shack around 1965 or so. I have b
The NR function is supposed to determine the signal level in the noise and then adjust the DSP filter to accentuate the signal through this noise. Once the determination is made by the NR logic, then
I am noticing another issue with 2.055. On CW (could be on SSB too but I don't spend any time there), after a while the audio starts to become very fuzzy, raspy and distorted. This happened twice ton
I don't need no steenking meter to tell me the NR in the new firmware is lousy. I was spoiled. Bring back 1.371! k4ia Craig "Buck" Fredericksburg, Virginia USA _______________________________________
You are correct. The new version has regressed back to the occasional scratchy distorted audio that was present in early versions of the software. I found that turning the volume control up and down
Jerry Well said. I wouldn't part with my Sounds Sweet either. It is without a doubt, hands down, the best sounding ham speaker I have ever used. You can spend the same money on a speaker that matches
