If your Orion is a newer one then it probably is not a bad display.
However, I got a first production run Orion and the screen was defective.
Since replacing it the screen is much improved in respect to the darkening
on the upper left corner. Paul at Ten-Tec has been very helpful when I have
had problems in the past and has spent a great deal of time with me on the
phone when I did not understand something about the operation of the Orion.
I know you are overseas but it would be worth your time to call or email
him.
Having said that, I have installed a CPU fan over the Orion to blow air
over the top of it. I have the Orion in a console so suspected that it was
not getting enough air circulation. Set the contrast on 50 % at least.

Subject: [TenTec] Orion screen
Dear friends,
I have just noted on my TT Orion the LCD screen become darker on the upper
left screen side about one hour after the power on.
It seems more evident if the external temperature rise, here we have now
about 30°C - 33°C
Any idea about this fact? Any possible correction? Could be the LCD screen
defective?
Should I contact the TT service?
Thank for your help.
