The following is from John Henry @ Ten Tec, who has given me permission
to pass this along. It is part of an ongoing 'conversation' we've been
having regarding ongoing TT support for its various radios.

Hi Eric,
Sorry for the delay in the response, been very busy both at work and
with my father's hospitalization.
I am working on a schedule for the Orion 565 update, and the schedule
for the high speed sweep board. They are like puzzles, they change
when a new issue is found, or interface is realized, etc. The nature
of the SW beast. But as soon as I can make them public, I will. A
Jupiter update should occur this year, depends upon how the 565 and
HSS go. I doubt an OMNI-VII update will occur for a while (at least
not this year, probably part way through next year.)
I'm guessing the 565 update will be out to end customers either around
Christmas or worst case part way into January. HSS, well, still
negotiating cost/timing/etc. So I can't pass that on yet. But when
that happens that will precipitate a 566 update and an OMNI-VII update
to handle the new board.
Feel free to pass this information along, and I will formally update
the reflectors on the status later this week.
73, John Henry
