[TenTec] RF in headphone cables

[John Nason / NA9U <na9u@arrl.net>]

I had pretty bad case of RF getting into my headphones
on frequencies from 20m and below.  But I did not
originally attribute it to the Orion because when I
transmit full power into a dummy load it goes away. I
fixed the problem with an RF bead.  I figured the
headphone cables were just the right length and the RF
was coming from the antenna, not the rig.    

Are there others that have this issue?  Does anyone
see this on a non Orion rig?

Inquiring minds...
