Hi Jerry
Did you have any luck selling your Omni C?
If not I am interested if the price is low enough.  I have an Omni C that I 
blew out the final transisters on by moving the band switch while 
transmiting.
I had just rebuilt the pto and had the front panel off while testing and 
turned the wrong knob.
My 9 year old grand nephew was out with his mother and three sisters to 
visit the farm last summer and showed an interest in amature radio so I 
fired up the Omni C and let him listen in on the ham bands.
I sent him home with the ARRL general manual and his mother says that she 
catches him reading it in his bed room.  He is a precocious young guy so 
when they come back this coming summer and he has done his home work I will 
see if I can get him passed on his general license.  I told him when he left 
last summer that if he got his license that I would give hime the Omni C.
So It needs to be fixed or I could buy yours and rebuild the pto and send it 
home with him.
73, John

Gentlemen,

I recently wrote a post about my Omni C needing a pto rebuild. I have 
decided not to try that or put any more $ into it that I already have.

It is cosmetically in good shape, looks good, has the xtal filters in it and 
nb. It hardly drifts at all from a cold start and it is the best one I have 
had as far as agc pop. Also I have the remote vfo and deluxe 255 ps with 
speaker.

I will take best offer as I don't have a clue as to the worth of it or I 
would trade on something like a Scout with at least the 80, 40 and 30M 
modules or a good Argonaut, any flavor plus $ or another ten tec station? 
Please let me know if interested. Tnx/73

Jerry...W9CTb
