I'm waiting for some additional input from TT service and in the mean time I'd like to solicit some advice from others who are using the 302R with the Orion I or II. Just yesterday I received a 302R and it seems to me that selecting bands from my new keypad does not match the description given in the manual nor does it make logical sense to me.

For instance if I press the upper left button on the Orion panel 160m is selected. If I press the upper left button on the remote 15m is selected.

If I press the lower right on the panel 10m is selected. Lower right on the remote selects 40m.

It seems to me that my remote does not match the description in the manual and it would be a bit confusing if pressing a button on the remote having the same physical location as the panel causes a different band to be selected. If you are a 302R user how does your remote operate and does it match the description in the manual?
