[TenTec] New Orion

I have the INRAD mod on my MP as well.  It does really help on the noise
floor. The MP is a very nice radio.  The Orion just takes it to another
level on crowed band selectivity.  The old 940SAT is still a very nice radio
as is the Corsair 2. My Heath SS9000 has as good of sensitivity as them all
and is also a very nice radio.  I usually use this rig with the HL2200 on
the Heathkit net   20:30 GMT on Sundays.  73's   Steve

The new Inrad first IF filter sure has helped my Mark V - seems like a new
rig.  I'm waiting to see how the proposed Omni VI filter will be.  Tom W6EIJ
