Re: [TenTec] Orion Relay Noise

["pfizenmayer" <pfizenmayer@qwest.net>]

There is apparently a huge difference between the amount of noise the relays 
make - its mainly on break rather than make - I have a friend with an OII 
who says he cannot hear the relay even with his ear on the lid , and his 
wife - who he says can hear a pin drop two rooms away says the same. I can 
hear mine 15 feet away from the Orion.
