I own both a K2 and an Orion 2 (as well as a SDR1000). The main problem with the K2 is the smallness of the case and the fact that every button has a 'tap' behaviour and an 'press and hold' behaviour
While low cost is always an option, if I am going to get into VHF/ UHF, I would prefer high performance with moderate cost. Is the Elecraft transverters high performance? I have always assumed that S
I agree on this point: The Orions are now being challenged by both Elecraft as well as Flex Radio with their new Flex 5000a (the next radio I am buying). Its time they stopped working on new products
The Flex model is a bit different in that part of the "radio" is in hardware and part in software. Flex sells the hardware and a collected group of open-source fanatics build the software. That is no
Does anyone have a schematic of the 301? I have often thought of building an external controller that could use the port on my Orion2 but have no idea the signals it requires! 73 Neal Has anyone used

I own a orion 2 and did not realize there was any difference, but now know it does not exist on the classic Orion. Sri for induced confusion! Neal Campbell K3NC nealk3nc@gmail.com telnet to our DX Sp

When we moved back from belgium I brought a spool of the aircell coax with me! Also, I have seen it advertised in CQ magazine somewhere. If you like it, why not stick with it? Neal Campbell K3NC neal

I swapped my Orion for a O2 at christmas as well as got a MK2R+ which is a tremendous upgrade of the shack! The MK2R+ is connected to the Microham Band Decoder just so you have a full understanding o
I just wrote ditsnbits about this. We have been getting ready to play in the ARRL RTTY Roundup this weekend with Orion2's, using FSK. We have seen several times the situation where the software (and
