The Omni VII, Omni VI, and Icom 7800 all seem to be about a tie on the Sherwood test data. The Omni VII is an excellent radio and has much better receive audio than the pinched audio on the Omni VI.

Well adding a INRAD roofing filter to the Omni VI Plus makes it a
totally different radio. I wouldn't view this as an equal compairson.
Subjective or otherwise.

It's easy, sell the Omni VI and buy an Omni VII. Much better in all

Not sure about "all." I suspect that an Omni VI, especially one
fitted with an Inrad Roofing Filter mod, would run rings around an
Omni 7 in terms of narrow spaced IMD. It's also tough to beat the
Omni VI's front panel ergonomics, but that's subjective.
