My "bevloved" TEN TEC Omni VI model 563 needs diagnosis and repair. . I say 
"beloved" because of all the radios I have owned and operated over my 66 years as a ham 
operator, the Ten Tec Omni VI is the best including Collins KWM 380, KWM 2 and others. I purchased 
a bandpass board removed from a working Ten Tec Omni VI and installed it in my Omni VI.
My Omni VI fires up normally; with RF gain open it receives much noise, birdies and      
  other junk.  It receives a very strong carrier on 10 mhz WWV.
No amateur signals on any bands. Just phase noise and birdies are received.
At age 86 years of age, I am not able to pinpoint where all Amateur bands 
signals are being interrupted.
All knob functions and SWITCHES potentiometers, and the clock works well. LOTS of Volume 
(noise) received on all band positions. VFO works great according to the digital read 
out. All push button switches work as well as transmit/receive. No RF output in 
transmit.  I need the services of a great OMNI VI technician. Please assist me 
to get my OMNI VI working. There are NO Ten TEC technicians here in Louisiana. I need to 
hear from you.
Thanks and 73.
