Why not go to W1AW and take a listen to the one they have. That might answer your questions on a first hand basis.

Subject: [TenTec] Orion/Orion II questions


Hi,
I've been reading the postings on this list for a while and am getting ready to take the plunge for either an Orion or Orion 2. The remaining questions that I have are:

How good is the performance on 160 when in an area with many broadcast band stations. My spectrum analyzer shows me that there are 4 very strong stations in my area ranging from -6dBm to +2dBm which would reach the radio (at the end of the transmission line connecting to the radio). In addition, W1AW is about 5 miles from my QTH and consistantly has an S9 +60 on 160, 80, and 40.

Are there any owners near the Hartford, CT area?

Thanks in advance.

Mike, WA1SEO
