Hi Scott,

You are indeed correct! I am very happy with my Orion! It is a magnificent piece of engineering!!! And the cool thing is, that as improvements and new features are developed, I don't have to but a new radio to get them, I just update the firmware!! Cool, really cool...I just wish Icom had done this on their 756 series of radios, it would have saved me a lot of money!!

Keep up the Great work!!

73 es GUD DX,

Kirby, K7EC

There are PLENTY of happy Orion owners out there in amateur radio-land.
Far more than are subscribed to, or participating on, the reflector on contesting.com.


You'd never know it from reading this forum.

What you've got from this list should be useful. Think about it. I too don't have an Orion. But what I have gotten from this list (IMHO) has caused me to not immediately go and buy an Orion. Those gripes are sounds from some disappointed Orion owners, that should be informative to you. The fact that there is quite a bit of gripeing is inormative also. Now when it does "lighten up" as you desire and hope for the list, then that will be informative also. A bunch of happy Orion owners. What will it take? I think you already know.

I have traded my Jupiter and put the Scout in a box in the closet. It is
NOT that I have anything against Ten Tec, it is just that I am tired of the
continual bitching about the Orion. I joined this list hoping for at least
some information about Ten Tec products but it seems that there is nothing
but gripes about the Orion. I do not now nor will I ever have an Orion
(unless someone gives me one) so I have no dog in this fight. I do however,
wish that some of you would lighten up a little.
