One more item about keying and I'll keep quiet. !!!!!!
Keyer mode A and B reflect the Curtis Keyer A and Curtis Keyer B timing
patterns. There is, or should be, quite a bit of difference in keying
characteristics. If it changes modes on its own, you MAY have a problem.
I think Ten Tec's choice of Curtis Keying was an excellent move as it's one
of the most user friendly modes available. The Curtis A timing (in the
Orion) is slightly superior to Logikey's VZero timing. Now please
understand, this is only my opinion as I'm sure others would prefer the
Logikey over anything. The Logikey is an excellent keyer, I just like the
Orion's better.
