- Good Day Members of the TenTec Reflector! Question for you about in-rush current protection. I leave my On/Off switch on my Omni VI+ in the ON position and turn the rig off and on via the On/Off swit

- Good Question Richard will have to see what kind of in puts you get. I use to do the same thing with my OMNI 6 when I had it. Will be watching replies, 73 Mac Good Day Members of the TenTec Reflector

- As it suggests in the manual, you should turn the supply on first and then turn on the radio. Reverse the order when you shut it off. I leave the supply on all the time. John N1JM Good Question Richa

- Actually, I believe Ten Tec gear is happier if it is switched from the rig and not the power supply, Dick. Connections are there to turn off the supply, if that is what the radio prefers, or to not t

- Dick, This doesn't answer your question directly, but why don't you leave the 961 on all the time and turn the power on / off with the Omni VI+ switch? If your VI+ has the crystal oven that would kee

- Years ago, I built a power supply with the 723 regulator IC to run the transceiver I had at the time. I couldn't figure out why simply turning on the supply with only the transformer and filter capac

- Minor downsides: power use, temperature & voltage stress reducing lifetime, fire hazard. All are small effects, but non-zero. I leave my power supply on, anyway. -- martin.ewing@gmail.com http://blog
