No, what I reported means that the Orion, as is now,
present rig status, was NOT a huge obstacle to recent,
success. Were these issues REALLY big
deals, and impediments, these fellows would not
have done as well as they did.
That is my only point as you raised the issue seemingly
implying that contesters could not possible do well on CW
with the Orion in its' present state.
