I mean, given that Ortegas has already been shown flying a Gorn fighter, her figuring out how to use a Gorn radio is far less surprising of a feat.

Plus they made a point of showing just how handy she is with technology, especially Jerri rigging it.

Jerri Rigging, named after the Seven of Nine actress because she's known for being able to jury-rig Borg tech into any problem VOY encountered?

I absolutely despised the slide into "Borgwatch", when Seven-of-Nine joined the cast. Then, on later viewings, I realized that her episodes were some of the best.

She's a new character suddenly shoved into everything, taking away time from the beloved (maybe?) other characters, only because they wanted to add a role with sex appeal putting her in these ridicilous costumes (which don't really fit my ideals of sex appeal, but whatever).
But goddamn it, Jery Ryan could (well, still can, going by Picard) act - And the writers actually knew what to do with her character, unlike so many other members of the part (besides the Doctor).

Interesting. It auto corrected to Jerri Rigging when the actual term is Jerry Rigging - but I guess the first is funnier.

That's still a colloquialisation of the proper term, jury rigging.
