I hope I am not going to give away any secrets here, but as Mike Hyder referred to later in the T-T Digest today, living close (60 miles or so) to Ten Tec has its advantages! A call to Paul Clinton,
"There is no advantage over it vs. the master heater oven previously used..." so says Scott Robbins, and he should know what he is talking about. However, I own one of the first Omni VI's out the doo
Same problem I had with the Titan I. And when it blew the final time (would you believe a cold solder joint in the p.s.?), it had damaged the finals, and TT would not replace them. Took a real financ

Gee, Mike. You ever OWN an Omni VI? Duane Budd w5ben@arrl.net If you've got a Triton, you don't need an Omni VI Mike Looking for a nice Omni VI with Opt 3 upgrade. Need all filters if available. Repl
I have an 80-amp battery charger which I removed from motorhome. It is in good, working condition. I replaced it with a "modern" charger which has multiple modes. This is one HEAVY monster. And it is
I wonder if anyone at Ten-Tec has noticed that Hercules-II amps and Model 253 automatic antenna tuners sell at very good prices nearly the minute an availability note is posted here? There MIGHT be a

I was told at the factory that if the auto-tuner was controlled by being connected to the Omni/Hercules combo, the EPROM was not being "used up"; that that only occurred when it had to find the low S
I have had one of these slopers for some time. I mounted it as they recommended - my 50 ft. tower has a 4-element beam on top. As far as I am concerned, the antenna was a total waste of money. I neve
I hope you have solved your problem already by talking to the Ten Tec tech support people, but if you have not... I do not have a Titan III, but I do have a QRO 2500DX, which has the same tubes. NORM
Gee, you ought to get something for the $1000+ the Orion costs! 73 Duane Budd w5ben@arrl.net -- Date: Sun, 23 Nov 2003 16:25:12 -0000 From: "W0YG Charlie Summers" <w0yg@plusten.net> To: "TenTec" <ten
I do not understand why Ten Tec built that amp with the limitation on power, since the tubes are certainly capable of 2KW output (at least). I have a QRO 2500DX. It is a super amp. Performs as advert

If someone has such a broken knob and will send it to me, I will take a look and see if it is feasible to turn out a piece of tubing on my lathe with the characteristics suitable for repair. If it is
