Here is what Ten Tec told me years ago: "If there is a diode just to the left 
of the MC74HC573 chip (third connection on the left edge of the card) place a 
jumper across it. Depending on the model of the rig, there will be one diode, 
two diodes or a jumper. The Omni series requires a jumper for proper readout. '

I don't remember having any problem doing this, and I remember that it worked.  
Hope this helps.
