Hi John-
Over 14 years ago i had a similar problem with my 6+. This is from
memory. Check the RIT control to see that it works correctly. Open the
rig and unplug the RIT pair from the board. Next unplug the main tuning
pair from the board and substitute the RIT pair for the main tuning
pair. If the RIT control now operates as main control- correctly- your
main encoder is bad. Order a new encoder from Ten-Tec.
I think the wire numbers were in the 50's, perhaps one was 56. I cannot
remember exactly. This info came from Ten-Tec service department.
Let us hear the results

I have an OMNI VI+ that is exhibiting VFO problems. Occasionally the
main tuning will not change frequency, or will do so at a very slow
rate, or in the wrong direction. It is almost as if the main tuning
knob is slipping on the shaft. However, it isn't slipping. This
sometimes cures itself or sometimes when I change bands a few times.
I have not seen this reported previously as an issue.
Anybody have experience with this problem?
Thanks & 73
