Ahh...but wait! I found a picture of the prototype ready to go to production! Feast your eyes on this... http://www.ronc.users.sonic.net/TTOmniVII.jpg It still needs some software updates, but what t
In all fairness to TT and other American manufacturers, the value of the US Dollar relative to the Japanese Yen increased 44% between 1995 and the end of 2005, and during the same period, we saw a 28
Thanks for that information, Mark. Three questions: What settings did you use on the 8-Band for the V1 firmware, did you have the TX EQ in the Orion set to flat, and also, what selectivity did you ha
Kirk: I had to chime in since what you're describing is exactly what I'm using. The PR40 sound great on the O2 with nothing in between and all the settings flat. Adding the 8-Band and EQPlus gives th
The different settings you are using at 50 and 100 Hz track very close to the difference I measured between the factory specifications and Orion II's actual frequency response. Ron N6AHA ____________
Collins made crystal filters for the 9 MHz range for the old KWM-380, but I think getting up to that frequency with mechanical resonance may be a stretch. Ron Castro Chief Technical Officer Results R
If we want real frequency stability, here is what is needed: http://www.bliley.com/n47x___nv47x___co_08.pdf I wonder if TT would be willing to order a few of these custom since a volume purchase woul
I notice such things...even that net control of the Sunday 20 meter TT net is always 20 Hz low in frequency on his Jupiter! And I hate it when I'm in a round-table or a net and not everyone is on the
Well, you're right about that! Looking at the dial read 14.328.980 bugs me though... Ron N6AHA _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http://lists.c
Very sure...when harmonics are not aligned harmonically (as they should be!), they become dissonant, much like IMD as opposed to harmonic distortion, which is more musical and less irritating. Unless

It's just hot air from some folks who are deathly afraid of suffering buyer's remorse. They go through the same psychosis when they buy a car and Consumer Reports or Motor Trend pans it. Doesn't both

I would have to agree with those who mentioned the StepIR antennas. I don't have one yet, but the research I have done indicates that it's a good compromise between mono-banders on each band, interla
I have been having good luck with Sennheiser HD 202's. They're $19.95 from Broadcast Supply World Wide, or on special at five for $89. http://www.bswusa.com/proditem.asp?item=HD202PKG The only proble
Since the last two Orion II firmware updates came out on Fridays, every Friday I check the RFsquared website with the ebullient hope of finding a new update. But as another Friday business day comes
I think if you upgrade to the latest version of the software, 2.034, the problem will go away. What version are you running? Ron N6AHA _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing l
While the version could very well be the problem, I would look at the keying voltage and current to be sure it's within the Orion's specifications. IIRC without looking at the schematic, it uses a 2N
No change since 2.034 in May. We're still waiting patiently for the list of things that "need fixed" and everyday I check RFSquared.com. No word in a long time. The last two updates came on Fridays..
