41. [TenTec] Steppir vs Orion (score: 1)
Author: Martin Ewing <martin@aa6e.net>
Date: Tue, 24 Aug 2004 21:28:43 -0400
Just got my SteppIR up yesterday. All is well, except... Hooked the Orion serial port to the Steppir data in using Steppir-supplied "K2" cable. Set everything up according to manual, I think. No comm

The SteppIR cable "K2" has Orion-Steppir connections: 2-2, 3-3, 5-5, shell-shell, and pins 7-9 jumpered at SteppIR side. This accords with the Steppir document at http://www.steppir.com/pdf/serial%20

That's an interesting thought. How would a transceiver know or care about your rotator setting? The SteppIR frequency can be set via your transceiver, of course. I suppose you are asking about comput

You might think this is a joke, but it would be interesting to have the DX spot reports show up on your rig's screen. You can do it today if you have your web browser screen up next to your rig's rem

Yes, I've seen this behavior, and some other random artifacts in SubRx tuning that come up for no apparent reason and need a power reset to fix. (v 1.371) These must be firmware programming problems.

Probably the same reason they "painted" the Mic / PH / CW jack titles black -- on black. And the "A" and "B" VFO titles, too. Not to mention "POWER" and "ALC". Saves a couple of pennies. You have to

Eric ON6CV's tiny video of one of his Orion bugs is available as an MPEG at www.aa6e.net/media. Worth 1,000 words? You be the judge. I think he has more. -73, Martin, AA6E ___________________________

Hi, Eric, Yes, the knob puzzle. You have to pull off the silver plastic sleeve, which you can do carefully with a knife blade or small screwdriver. Then there is a set-screw to loosen the main knob.

For what it's worth (OT), I expect the power ratings (and frequency response, too) are based on 1:1 VSWR / 50 ohms. It would be useful to know what they can do with say 2:1 VSWR. I.e., you want some

John, In a way, it's simple. That's what a frequency synthesizer does. You take a 10 MHz reference, divide it down and/or multiply it up by various ratios, mix and filter, etc. Doing it well and chea

Cheap PLLs, yes. A lot depends on the quality of the controlled oscillator. You can use a PLL to steer a crystal oscillator (oh so gently), and get minimal phase noise. Effectively, the crystal filte

I think we have a problem with Orion's signal processing. Not that it can't do wonderful things and run circles around older rigs. The problem is that the signal processing is not properly documented
