Ten Tec Friends, My new Orion-II adapts well to a high SWR with its built-in tuner (it really does work nicely), but tomorrow I will try to eliminate one possible cause: The feedline. I can do that w
I have been playing with my new O-II, and one of my favorite features is the optional built-in antenna tuner. Aside from not having "memories," I really like it. I have matched way mis-matched loads,

Does anyone have any experience with the Ten-TEc 2-10 xverter? I am considering using one on my Omni VI+ to get on EME. I am just starting this, and know little about EME. I read that you need a low
Crit, I am not familiar with the Option 1 upgrade, but on my Omni VI+ (factory version), it's a straightforward low-pass filter. It attenuates high frequencies, and allows low frequencies to pass thr
