Re: [TenTec] [Orion] ORION CW question

[Joe Giacobello <k2xx@swva.net>]

Beppe, I believe there are two relays on CW.  One is the keying relay 
which operates in synchronization with your code elements.  Some people 
with sensitive hearing can hear that relay.  There also must be a T/R 
(transmit/receive) relay.  It sounds like you're hearing the keying relay.
