Gang,

I've been trying to clean up the mess of wires behind my pair of Omni VIs,
and I was wondering if it would be possible to internally modify the Omni VI
to connect the cw key and 12VDC lines to unused pins on the 24 pin connector
on back of the Omni VI?  I could replace several wires with a single chielded
cable and clean things up considerably that way.

Also, has anyone come up with a mod that would allow the front panel aux
antenna switch to turn 12VDC on and off in order to control an antenna relay,
which would allow front panel selection of two transmit/receive antennas?
I've devised a different scheme to switch my 160M receive antenna in and out,
but would like to be able to switch antennas on other bands from the front
panel if possible.

Also wonder if it would be possible in future firmware changes to allow a
tighter DSP option for CW filtering, say 400 or 300 Hz as opposed to the
present 600 Hz?

Thanks

Paul, KB8N
