thank you, I have learned that the OTHER menu item on the Orion allows for LOW MEDIUM HIGH. I will try that first.

Question: is there a way to turn down the audio gain from the I/O DIN
connection on the back the Orion?


As far as I am aware, no.

But it's easy to add an in-line pad to drop the output down to whatever you
need - just a simple voltage divider (two resistors) will do.

I think it's actually a feature that the audio level coming out the back is
not affected by the front panel knobs.

The feature I don't like on the O2 is, for some reason, you don't get
stereo out the back (that is, both receivers).  On the 565, you did.

I have 2 Orions and have them connected to a Yankee Clipper SO2R+ which
feeds the audio thru to headphones. turning down the main and sub AF gain
does NOTHING to the I/O gain thru the DIN connector.

there is much too much volume in the headphones. the output is so loud
thru the SO2R box that I can use the headphones as a speakers. in fact
right now I am listening without problem to a CW chat on 17 meters with the
headphones on the desk.

thanks,
