"Clicking on a packet spot"? That's not part of my Orion's repertoire! If you are using software to control the Orion, then that's where the problem is.

I agree that Orion's front-panel behavior is not perfect. I don't know if other rigs in its class are better. After all, these are very complicated rigs with lots of configuration options. I don't want to pay $3-15K per rig to analyze them all.

My TS-520S is very intuitive in comparison, but I'm not going back any time soon.

I have been complaining of the completely absurd settings when clicking on a packet spot. It's a crap shoot what mode/band width will come up??? I've been trying to figure out where the O2 gets this info from??? Also I have been complaining about the ANT1/ANT2 not chaining when different bands are selected via a packet spot or by the O2's own MEMORY selection??? What's up with this?
I wrote to Ten Tec about these short comings with no response.
