Ten-Tec Orion II descatalogado

Hola,

Ya se que no es precisamente un super-ventas en España, pero creo necesario dar la noticia.
Ten-Tec ha decido dejar de fabricar el Orion II:

Escribió:

“On a rather sad note, about the time you read this message, we will have sold out of the last 566 Orion II transceiver. Unfortunately, due to the availability of some very critical parts plus skyrocketing prices for difficult components, the staff at TEN-TEC decided to discontinue this product. This does not mean we will not trade or sell used and demo Orion’s and Orion II models. We will continue service and support this product as we have done in the past with all TEN-TEC products. Is a new Orion III on the horizon? There are plans for several new TEN-TEC products lined up for the future but at this time no concise decision has been made for another Orion transceiver.”

Al parecer el procesador del Orion, el DragonBall Super VZ 66 MHz, se ha dejado de fabricar por lo que la radio no puede seguir fabricándose tampoco.

No está confirmado que vaya a salir un Orion III, por lo menos inmediatamente.
Puede que a medio plazo.
