Several years back I posted my impression that the RX366/Eagle RX factory
provided IF output was essentially useless (bordering on non-functional).
The IF output mod documented by Rick VE7TK/VE7ASR works great on the Orion
I/II and I documented a similar mod for the Omni VI/VI+. I'm not sure if a
mod was documented for the Eagle.
It might have been a mix up in Ten Tec engineering at the time that
resulted in that jack being characterized as a usable IF output.
That's as far as my memory goes.
