Absolutely! The firmware currently on the radio dates back to the one of
the earliest production dates and has never been updated, and as a result,
the radio crashes often during contest conditions. I understand that
1.373b5 is considerably more stable than the much earlier versions. I'll
know for certain this time next week!

Subject: [TenTec] Original Orion question
In preparation for Field Day, I have been asked to update the
firmware on an original Orion. I'll be staying in the v 1.x
mode, probably using v 1.373b5. I can find the .ruf files,
but is the loader program the same one the Orion II uses or
is there a different one for the Orion?
