Power supply is the problem,
If The power supply voltage drops too low, ( mine was 12.8 ), the screen
goes white,
Everything else works ok,
Sort of hurts a Feild Day operation on batteries alone,
Best wishes,

Subject: [TenTec] Orion I CRT

I have an Orion I that I recently purchased used. I have noticed that the
CRT display flashes on and off with each dot and dash that I send. If I
reduce the power output to 50 watts or less the problem goes away. The SWR
is 1:1 and the Orion is properly grounded.
Is this normal?
