Anyone have this happen before? While using the radio the control started getting stiff, then is close to being completely frozen in place. The push button function (change between AF or RF control d
In an earlier post today I said the RF gain / AF gain contro on my OMNI VII was frozen. Took the radop aart and doscpvered that the rf gain control is actually an encoder - and it is mounted on a sma
I was in the process of replacing the bad encoder/s for the passband/bandwitch RF/AF gain and somewhere in the process a zip lock bag that contained the plastic sleeves that help center the encoders
Suspect this is an alignment issue but: Recently I have noticed a weak tone when on RX. I can notch it out, I can passband it out too. If I turn the VFO knob, the tone will disappear while tuning and
I have an OMNI 6+ that instantly shuts down when keying on CW with no output drive or on SSB with mike gain at zero. It is not an SWR issue. Any hints? Just put it on the bench to start looking at it
Shuts down meaning the OMNI 6 shuts of the power supply with zero drive. As other TenTecs, if you reset the condition by turning the power off and back on - the radio comes back up. My OMNI VII will
Anyone know where I can get a couple? the 160m relays are flaky, and have been that way for a long time. I am working on the LP switch board and while I have it out I thought I would fix another know
I don't know what other rigs use these relays. They are marked HASCO KLT1C6DC12 I found them online but $50 minimum order. I need the 2 for the 160m position. Doug N4IJ ______________________________
I vaguely remember that the manual has an error in the adjustment procedure. Someone on the list probably has the correction. I found it on the web. I tweeked mine using the corrected procedure and i
It would seem like I am advertising my OMNI6+ on this list but I have not seen any listed on QTH or ebay lately for pricing. Right now am using my OMNI6+ as backup to my FTDX5000MPL, so it sits on th
Thanks for the feedback guys. Seems like it would be wise for me to keep it.... As for the question about ringing on the CW filters - I have 500hz and 250hz in both IF's. I never noticed ringing in t
So I was tuning around today and heard part of a qso. One guy was qsy to help Ten Tec factory to get up and running. At least that is what I thought I heard. I haven't kept up with Ten Tec changes. J
Actually I did not know they fixed anything any longer. I had one several years ago, and worked on it myself. I don't wish that on anyone. My problem was, from what I remember, in the Low pass/rf swi
I have a OMNI 6+ and no fan. Have run RTTY at times, but of course CW most. It is still happy Doug N4IJ _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contesting.com http:
Thought I would put this out there. I acquired an OMNI D with a PTO that is pretty much frozen. Anyone got a leftover kit, or a bag of parts? I actually rebuilt one years ago and kept the old parts f
I have a TT OMNI-D That seems to have a mixer issue. Since I have not done any troubleshooting, it could be a parts rig if someone wants to pay a little and the shipping. It has he cover and front pa
I have an OMNI-D I purchased last Summer, I lubed the PTO since it was not moving. It is on the workbench and I don't have time to put it back together. Other than the PTO it seemed OK. I am not an e
TOM W4TUC, I would think about $80 plus shipping for all of it. That is as it is now with front panel removed and not put back together - but all there. Otherwise I'll let bits and pieces go as they
Picture deleted since it is too big... Starting to thin some of my stuff. Picture from my very old cell phone but you get the idea - sorry for grainy picture. OMNI 6+ very nice cosmetics. Only thing
