Most likely a relay coil open being either K4 and/or K5 on the Low Pass
Filter board. Both bands, 17M & 15M, use the same filter section which is
switched by those two relays. This is the vertical board at the back of the
radio.
If you pull them to check them, replace them. Since the coils are wired
parallel, it is a bit of a challenge to figure just which one is bad with in
circuit measurements. My luck, I usually remove the good one first. Go
figure! Tentec Service has replacements. There's 12 of them on the
board. Unless you have time and money to replace all 12, I'd order 4 pcs
and replace 2 keeping 2 as spare.

Subject: [TenTec] OMNI VI illness
Can anyone suggest if there is anything to check on this problem?
OMNI VI+, otherwise working fine, but....
No output on 15 or 17 meters.
I can hear the signal on another receiver, but no output at all.
Receive OK, and all other bands transmit fine.
Is there something switched in for just 15 and 17?
Thanks for any thoughts!
....Dave
