It sounds like the antenna is not connected to the sub-receiver. Assuming
you only have one antenna connected to the Orion in the "Antenna 1"
connector, make sure the Orion front panel on the left side has BOTH "Main
RX/TX" and "SUB RX" buttons turned on next to the "ANT 1" indiciator. If
this is the case, then your Orion has a hardware bug. Check the small
RG-174 coax connectors inside the Orion that go to the sub-receiver input.
I find no improvement using the 1.8 roofing filter. I do not recommend it.

Subject: [TenTec] : SUB-RX: TEN TEC - ORION
Thanks dear Carl,
i am doing all the tests with my ORION, but the reception of the SUB-RX is
a true disaster,_ Long wawes and Medium wawes i can say don't exist, in
receiveing a signal with S = 8/9 you can see black only the space between
first and second line, and (same settings) you switch from Main to Sub,
sometime you listen very very low in comparison of Main, sometime you listen
nothing.
Would ask you for an advice: do you think , for SSB , important to install
the ROOF-FILTER 1.8- ?
thanks again
