[TenTec] orion operation issues

[bob finger <finger@goeaston.net>]

Yes, a book on how to operate would be nice for new hams but how to make 
it inclusive for the Orion would be a difficult task.

I had a new ham in the shack yesterday and spent a few minutes showing 
him how to properly tune an ssb signal.  Mentoring, or Elmering if you 
prefer is still the best way, book or no book.  Same applies to the 
learning curve of Orion.  Us old timers have forgotten so much it is 
sometimes difficult to relate to some basic questions.  It is so 
intuitive to us that we forget it does not always make sense to the 
newcomer.  Patience helps, by both parties.  73 bob de w9ge
