When I was discussing buying my new OMNI VI with Scott, KF2P (?) in
January I asked him if anyone at Ten-Tec was reading these reflectors.
Much to my surprise he said that no one was. I told him how much valuable
information was available on their customers and their competitors
and said that it should be essential reading for them. Don't know if
they took my advice.
BTW, my new OMNI arrived in time to use it for a partial effort in the CQ
WW 160 CW contest. It works just fine and I am very happy with the
receiver's selectivity on an extremely crowded band, even without the 250
Hz. filter (out of stock). Quite a change from my TS-940 and TS-930. I
love it! Hated to go off on a four week overseas business trip on
January 31 and leave my new toy home alone.
