I ordered the little plates to mount the power pole connectors on the back of
the Orion. Any suggestions on the process of installing the power poles that
way would be appreciated and for bypassing the fuse.
Thanks again and 73, Rod/w7zrc

I agree, it looks pretty flimsy, so think I will bypass and use a different
fuse.

take a gander at that little fuse holder while you are in there….kinda puny in
my observation.
when I redo my Oroin 1, I will bypass that fuse holder with a big fuse holder
on a new power cords pigtail.
