Without going into too much detail can someone fill me in on the problem with an Omni C on 17m? I seem to remember something about the IF having a problem on 17m. Is this on SSB and CW both? Thanks 7

There are two problems on 17m with the Omni C. The IF is 9 MHz, so the LO is mixed to 9 MHz also. Twice the LO injection is 18 MHz, twice the IF is 18 MHz, both roar through the mixer to produce spur

Hi Paul - Its not really a problem, but it is a design flaw. Hard to understand that the Ten Tec engineers didn't see it coming though. Since the OMNI-C has a 9 mHz IF, and 17 meters is at 18 mHz, yo

To further muddy the waters on this subject, as of August 14, 2003 Ten-Tec's official position was that the Omni C is fine on 17 meters. I sent them an e-mail inquiry on ths very subject and their re

No, Clark, the first IF of the Corsair is NOT 6.3 MHz. That's only the Bandpass Tuning IF of the RECEIVE IF. The transmit IF is still at 9 MHz as is the first receiver IF and the product detector. Th

Thanks everyone for the nice replies. I guess just to be safe I will stay off 17m with it. I had been thinking of taking it with me on vacation and 17m is a must. So will take a different rig Thanks

I used to have a Corsair. I could never understand why I had to operate it in the SBR (sideband-reverse) mode switch position to get the proper sideband for 17 meters. All the other bands were O.K. w

Wasn't that rig designed well before the WARC bands frequencies were known? Pretty hard to predict the future, look at the rigs that had 11m as standard on them in 1957. 73, Stuart K5KVH

Sorry that the below message is ambiguous. It is on 17 meters that my Omni-C puts out a couple of watts of garbage KEY UP. I have never had any trouble with that rig on any other band. When the Omni-

The question to ask is:"What sideband is the normal sideband in that radio on 17m?" If its upper sideband there's a big transmit spur. If its lower sideband there's no spur. Its possible that it may

Interesting question. All radios put out spurs,harmonics, splatter etc. It is a matter of level. An example; years ago I heard a lower sideband signal on the upper part of 10 meters and waited for an

The spurs come from the second harmonic of the LO and a little from the second harmonic of the IF. The IF is right about 9 MHz and fixed, so that spur stays on 18.0 MHz. The LO injection is 9 MHz + t

About the strength of the spurs: my Omni-C on 17 meters put out 100 watts key down and 2 or 3 with the key up. Assume best case, the difference between 100 watts and 2 watts of spurs is 17 dB. So the

The horse still isn't moving no matter how hard we kick! The shared crystal is for the 10 and 28 MHz bands. In the Omni C the crystal is 4 MHz to mix the 5 MHz vfo to 9 MHz where its second harmonic
