Wouldn't a drop of Testor's orange model paint, applied with a Q-tip work?
When I bought my Paragon, the dot was missing. I wrote to Ten Tec and
they sent me a dot. The paper dots fade in time, so I recently replaced
it with a dot cut from some orange marking tape that I have. It is a
good color match and brighter than the original. Of course the ultimate
is using an LED for the dot, as TT did with the new Argonaut, but I'm
not going to drill the panels in my gear.

I'm afraid that none of my TenTec radios have the Orange Ball!
They are a 516 Argonaut V, a 555 Scout and an Orion II.
What have I been missing out on?
Will the Orange Ball make the radio more receptive? B-)

Somebody was feeling sad that Ten Tec didn't have their orange ball on
the
O2 logo. I found a (ahem) decal and used my 3/16" hole punch to
create a "ball" and dress up my TT logo. If you want an orange
"ball," contact me off-list and we'll try to work it out.
