Back a couple of months ago, I had received some info from one or two
folks who were using DEM transverters with the Orion. Unfortunately, I
had multiple HD crashes and lost the info and the IDs of the
correspondents. If you're the guy(s) who corresponded with me, please
resend the info. (K9YC was this you?)
I am successfully using a DEM 6M transverter with the Orion. The only
problem that I've observed is that the power output is not variable via
the Orion's front panel power output control. The output is either zero
or maxed; there's no in-between. TT service says that there's something
wrong with the Orion and to send it in for service. It's not enough of
a problem for me to do that, but I wonder if others using a transverter
are able to vary their output power via the front panel control.
I would also like to be able to easily switch between DEM 6M and 2M
transverters. The only way I see to do this is via a multi-wafer switch
that switches four lines (I think. I haven't really looked at the
switching requirements that closely.) Is anyone out there currently
switching the Orion between multiple transverters? I'd like to know
exactly what you're doing.
Thanks and 73,
Joe
