I have to admit the learning curve with the Orion II took a while.
This radio is not as simple as your push button and talk to go. I do Find
Carl's program to be quite helpful and saves on touching the radio
It is really nice on split operation could not ask for anything better once
you get use to the settings.
The only bitch I have about it is the last firmware release that changed the
baud rate. The enhancements with the Orion II firmware really made a
difference for me Other than that I could not be happier.

I just got an email from ON4UN asking him why he is selling his Orion. He
is so happy with his Orion, that he bought 2 Orion II's a few months ago.
So this review is completely bogus.
