PLease tell me your experiences. I am 90% SSB. Most important operating I suggest you do a Google search for these topics: Omni VI SSB audio Omni VI+ SSB audio You find many comments about the poor r
Here is a link to a modification you can purchase from INRAD to improve the Omni VI+ audio. The receive audio for SSB is well known for being too narrow for comfortable copy. The purpose of this mod
Rob: I think your comments about the Omni VI are helpful, objective and fair. That is why they don't go over well with Scott. Factory reps will seldom admit the shortcomings of their products. They w
See what I mean Rob? You can't make a single negative statement about TenTec without getting bombarded by the same old defensive comments like "Yacomwoods have even worse problems." You can work on T
I get RF into all my TT rigs. I believe it comes in through the antenna jack and shows up at the speaker in the form of beeps. Steve N4LQ -- Original Message -- From: <wo8l@att.net> To: <tentec@conte
Sure. Most all rigs used crystal filters. Manufactures made lots of money on them. Then their engineers designed rigs that didn't need the expensive filters so the marketing departments made sure the
Well Buck, I guess you could just fiddle around with it until the BDR degrades then you'll know you have the filter in-line. Isn't it amazing what we've come too? Rigs are now so complex that we can'
I disagree. Roofing filers serve the same purpose, are located in the same place and are even the same physical part they have been for the past 30 years. Roofing is simply a new term invented to des
Bernard: I am refering to the basic block diagram of the receiver section. Yes, the Orion does have DSP as I mentioned however, the RF chain ahead of the DSP unit is the same basic superhetrodyne rec
Please believe me. The roofing filter is not in the front end. The front end is as broad as an entire ham band! The roofing filter is in the IF stage where it has always been. I can take the 9mhz fil
The Omni 6 uses a 15 khz filter at the beginning of the 9 mhz IF. In the manual, TenTec refers to it but does not call it a roofing filter. The roofing filter hype didn't begin until the Orion. So lo
I have loaded my buffer with text and keyed the rig at 100 wpm but it sounds almost like a continuous tone in the sidetone. I'm wondering how you could distinguish between the sidetone and someone br
This speaker matches the color of the Corsair II, Omni V, Paragon, Paragon II and Omni VI series. It is in "as-new" condition, ready to plug in and use. The color is light gray to perfectly match the
I read this as chopping all dits 30%, not just the first one. Typical Icom and of course the keyer has the fake weighting adjustment which is really ratio so you can't compensate for it. Just buy the
I would love to know exactly what is so hard about compensating for this short dit problem. As much effort as ICOM puts into engineering you would think this would be a piece of cake! I don't think i
