Anyone else have trouble with their power connector?
I think the thing is horribly undersized/underrated. I had trouble from the
beginning and ditched the wimpy wire that came with the Orion and am using
the power cable that came with an Argo V - surprisingly enough the Argo (a 20w
rig) cable was beefier than the cable that came with my Orion!
Problem is the low-budget 2 pin jack that goes into the radio. Mine gets
hot and the pins are black. Now the power will cut off on me when it starts
to
transmit. I can go back and wiggle it around, expand the slots in the pins
in the jack to make it fit tighter, but it works loose after time and starts
acting up again.
Any fixes? Am I the only one?
