Keep the Omni VI, one of the best CW rigs out there. Get with Ten Tec and determine your options 73 de Tj, K4TFJ ... _______________________________________________ TenTec mailing list TenTec@contest

Just finished an Omni VI Option 3. We found this at the TEN TEC Wiki Site. .... I took the guy at his word and the fellow who owns the Omni.... thinks I am a miracle worker .... See the Link below...

Without any doubt, the radio needs to go to Tentec to be repaired. Whatever is at fault, to effect a proper repair, will require a high level of knowledge regarding the Omni VI and the necessary test

I agree about the radio, which I like very much. It has a clean signal, does a good job receiving, is relatively easy operationally, arguably the best CW transceiver I know of (although that is somew

Just my opinion, but I'd want to have troubleshooting skills (or willing to learn) if I owned a 20+ year old Ten-Tec radio. These rigs occasionally need service - they simply won't be 100% problem fr

The Omni VI is my favorite rig for CW. I think it is worth the effort to either troubleshoot it yourself or get Ten-Tec to do it. Have you checked the BFO frequencies? If you don't have a frequency c

I have both a Corsair-II w/ the 263G and the OMNI-VII. I find both need to be run frequently. I'll keep the Corsair-II for old times sake and as my back-up, but the OMNI-VII gets used more for DXing

Instead of a freq counter, you can use a general coverage receiver with fairly precise digital readout. I've used a K3 and Orion subrx for this purpose. The Omni 6 BFO test point level is low enough

Sorry I can't agree that using a receiver would be adequate for alignment. My experience in repairing Paragon and Omni VI radios, a frequency counter with an accuracy of 0.1 Hz or better is required
