Ben, like many other recent DSP based rigs, the Orion/Orion II V2 code has been
"work in progress" for some time. There was a point in the firmware releases
where,
in my opinion, the V2 speech processing was not great. However, that has been
fixed
and I now believe that the current V2 speech processing is among the best I have
ever seen.
See post http://lists.contesting.com/archives//html/TenTec/2007-05/msg00478.html
The Orion/Orion II V2 speech processing algorithm delivers 15-20dB of
compression with
solid high quality speech. I think it represents a real advantage for SSB
contesters
or DX'ers.
