Your plants are showing the wear and tear of being outside enduring what Mother Nature throws at them. I don't see anything that would make me grab a pesticide, fungicide or Brookn's receipe.

first one look like fungus problem. Second one look like sun burn . Fourth is normal for oncidium alliance. That just my opinion.

I find it very hard to keep Oncidiums looking pretty when I grow them outside; it's just in their nature to get spotty.
