I believe the same thing is happening with 2.059d for Orion. The difference may be that in prior versions (2.056) just the opposite was happening--at least with my rig. I'd set the sidetone to a comf
My 8/04 Orion/AT came with a LDG tuner. When LDG released the new Orion and Jupiter tuners this spring, I bought an updated chip for $25 to provide 100 memories. Only had to cut one trace and solder
I doubt the board is a 217, 218 or 219 with four crystals. These boards have 6 or 8 crystals I believe. The pictures on the accessories page of the TT site do correspond to the filters in my VI+. htt
Ed, I was in the same situation and found a very nice Ten Tec Centaur amp. Runs QSK beautifully and puts out about 500w. I put in 572B tubes for the 811A's. Runs quite well on 110v. Only drawback is
Bob, I too wish there was more flexibility when assigning VFO B to the main receiver. For example, I believe the larger display font should be used for whichever VFO is assigned to the main receiver.
I've noticed the distortion on the leading edge of strong CW signals as well with v2.059. Although to a greater extent, I had the same issue with v1.371 and v1.372. My rig was last updated in the spr
I had my hopes up as well. Figure it's been over three months since the last update and there are still a few obvious issues. Maybe the new year will bring new firmware? 73, Gary W7TEA ______________
Bob, this site has a lot of info on the Orion. http://www.ok1rr.com/download.php?sekce=11 73, Gary W7TEA _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http
I would be interested if anyone has found appropriate NR settings for CW which they feel work well--for either Orion or Orion II. I've been totally unsuccessful in getting anything other than a disto
It's rather like "bait and switch" or is it "bait and bid?" Bad deal! _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/lis
Probably because I'm a slow plodder on the key, I notice the slow recovery on the Orion (v2059) as well. In fact, it seems no faster than my VI+ with slow AGC and delay set at 1. Some time ago N4PY n
Couple of comments-- TT posted the Omni VI specs this morning and while they seem to be better than the competition, I don't believe the close in dynamic range is greater than the VI+ and certainly n
You might read K4IA's post yesterday responding to N1VS whose screen faded in transmit. I used to get a flicker on my display when transmitting until I took his advice several months back to insure a
I also thought the software NB was near useless until I cranked it up to 9 one morning when the OTH radar was on 40m. The blanker took it out! Gary W7TEA _____________________________________________

This is also the way I understand the serial number system--built January 97 or actually, scheduled to be built in January 97. Although, I thought the first production run of VI+'s was in March so it
Tried responding to the original query before but used the wrong email address and 'fraid it got stuck somewhere for review. Certainly agree that hardware NB works very well. Takes out power line noi
Believe the issue was that installing the 500 or 250hz filters also enabled an additional amp which degraded performance. That is why the InRad 600hz filter was installed in the 1000hz slot. I know t
Where I see the potential personally is when I have to move from my QTH and into some retirement or assisted living facility. I'm in a CCnR neighborhood now (although expiring in two years!!!) with l
Joel, N4PY software certainly works as does Ham Radio Deluxe and MacLogger DX for Mac fans. 73, Gary W7TEA _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com ht
