Fascinating! I am here out in the shack with the radios, and have performed the test you outlined. I tuned the 706 with a pick up lead to 9.000.040 to hear the Omni BFO, It was not heard with the 706

That makes sense because adjusting the sidetone during the test did not change anything, as I think about it. I'll have a go at your further suggestions tomorrow. It is good to have the VI+ to compar

I may have a ground loop issue here. The new to me Omni VI+ with 962 power supply has an odd quirk, in that the power supply quits as I increase power, but only on 40M, with either of my two antenna,
