Re: [TenTec] [Orion] "Technical Correspondence", August 2007 issue

Hi all,

IMHO Frank makes some good points.  The Orion II (of which I am an owner) and 
the Flexradio are both excellent products but neither is perfect and neither 
is for everyone.  At this point in their respective development cycles they 
appeal to somewhat different audiences, with the open-software nature of 
Flexradio attracting many folks whose programming ability exceeds mine (which 
isn't 
hard to do).

I'm awaiting with anticipation further details and actual performance data on 
the Flex 5000 and the K3, as well as Ten-Tec's competitive response.  SDR is 
changing the landscape of radio, and it's an exciting time to be a ham.
