Re: [TenTec] Orion's break in

[Floyd Sense <floyd@k8ac.net>]

Knowing the history of the TenTec list, I'd say this is rapidly starting 
down another slippery slope where we dissect definitions of terms and 
question the abilities of others to make simple observations.  The issue 
here is: at least SOME Orion IIs make excessive relay noise when 
operating CW.  I WILL solve that problem - it's a mechanical noise that 
can and will be silenced.  If you are one of those Orion owners who are 
bothered by the noise and are not afraid of taking the covers off your 
Orion, contact me off-list and I'll notify you of the solution when I 
get to it.
