Decided to warmup using Orion on 10 meters in the LZ DX Contest today, and discovered some interesting settings while making about 120 QSO's (mostly weak EU): Case 1 - some atmospheric noise on the b

John, did you miss the part where I said the settings should work for all but 1% of QSO's? If you want to extact maximum performance from any product, whether it is a radio, camera, or automobile, yo

Argonaut V ranks on this comparison. Rod, I have it at 58/59 dB for IMDDR3 and 66 dB for BDR. I did not include all radios tested in the list...mainly those I thought of as potential contest radios.

The ARRL expanded test report shows Orion IP@ at 77dB pream off, and 73 dB preamp on. Apparently there is a discrepancy in the QST article, which has IP2 at 63 dB for both preamp on and off. Elecraft
