Gregg, Congrats! I honestly believe you will really like the OII. I think you made a great decision getting OII vs 7800. The front end is awesome on the OII. The roofing filters are great. When I wor

Larry, If I were you, I would get the used Orion classic, and run version 1.371 firmware on it. If you have been following the list here, you know why I am recommending this direction. You can always
