I had problems with my Orion losing receive audio using 1.370 in the WPX CW so this weekend I was curious to see if 1.371 did the same thing in the IARU contest. Sure enough, on the 2nd QSO I lost re
Could this be related to the number and strength of signals on the band? I never seem to be able to reproduce it after the contest if over. Just playing around with the same set up I had when I had t
Well, I'm not sure of anything! I am pretty sure it's not going into oscillation. It seems to be a muting of the receive audio. This weekend when it happened I just tapped the key and it came back. I
Sounds like you're not using the accessory jack for any keying like I was doing. After I switched my keyer to the key jack I didn't have any problems either. 73, Alan N5NA keyer has firmware
I'm running an Alpha 89. I had been using Keying Loop 1 when I operated in the WPX contest but I am just using Amp Key 1 now instead of the loop. 73, Keying
Just checked mine. I've got audio both to and from the aux connector. For audio from, be sure you change the menu from mic to aux for ssb transmit audio. 73, Alan N5NA
Steve, I don't think it's typical for the rig to lock up while running the sweep. I always run my sweep and rarely have any problems with the rig locking up. It has locked up before but it's been a l
Yes, I use the internal keyer. I just rarely have any problems. I think there has already been a post on your "x10m" question. That is a feature. By pressing the Main RX button it changes the step fr
With "PTT in CW as" set to "None" pressing the Tune button and then off kills the receiver on my rig. Works as expected when set to Key or MOX. Has anyone else seen this? Alan N5NA
Further to my previous post......it doesn't do it on CW. Appears to be only if on SSB. Also, hitting one of the band buttons brings the receiver back. Alan N5NA
Bob / Pete, What do you guys recommend the EXT T/R Delay be set to on the Orion? 0 %? Alan N5NA grandkids, two dogs, and Kritter the hamshack cat buzzing around what I write does not come out all tha
Barry, I played around with Writelog 10.47E for a few minutes. I couldn't even get it to take a frequency in the callsign field except for 10m. It moved to the 10m freq and left the BW unchanged. I t
I've been playing a very little bit in WPX this weekend and have lost my receive audio twice in the first 19 QSO's. Both times it has happened right after I dropped my call in while S&P. I had the ba
The early Bencher's had screws attaching the finger pieces to the paddle levers instead of the rivets they use now. This allowed you to put one of the finger pieces on the inside making the spacing n
