So, the Omni VII preliminary specs say "Collins mechanical filters"... Now, back in the day, I was a Drake man, not too much into Collins. However, I vaguely remember reading something about mechanic

S-line vintage Collins filters were bad about ringing. The IF output connector showed a continuous envelope from line noise. They turn static clicks to lengthy crashes. The rounded shoulders inherent

I recently bought a used Omni VII from TT.I got both the 500 and 300hz filters. I had an Omni VI+ for several years, and then an Orion for about 6 months. The Orion had the best receiver, but I did n

These are very nice, realistic observations, Paul. Nobody will ever lose a contest or even lose a few points in the standings buy running an Omni VII instead of an Orion.* The OM7 is as good or bette

I agree, Rick. I have both the Orion II & the Omni VII. The Omni is a very intuitive rig to operate. Plug it in & use it. The Orion II is a wonderful rig. I use it daily, and the Omni gets very littl

Dave, you brought up a real interesting point. Previously I thought the exact same thing. Had the Orion on a shelf and the remote VFO knob next to the keyboard. I wasn't sure how it would be with a r

I disagree based on experience. We run 2 Omni VIIs, an Orion II, an Omni VI, all in the same room, and it is someone using a K3s that complain ! For some contests, the phone guys are in one place, an

The OMNI-VII disadvantage MAY have a lot to do with the RF gain setting of the OMNI-VII and the PAs and transmitted signals of TX A, B, C, .... Our local club has for years had many and often heated

If I did the math correct, Gary's reference to dBm would be, for -30 dBm is about S-9 +43 dB, and for -10 dBM would be S-9 +60 dB or so. Nice strong signals I'd say. 73 Bob, K4TAX ___________________

Bob, You probably have the correct S-meter reading calculations..... I used to work with the commercial radio technicians and engineers (I was neither) who did all their signal level (power) calculat

All good points which I won't dispute. There are some rare exceptions. A couple of comments: - The Eagle would be a perfect rig for old codgers like your buddy (and me), if only they had made the sca

Yes, if the mode is CW. Not if the mode is SSB because SSB signals (ESPECIALLY during contests) are wide. If you're competing in a SSB contest, it doesn't much matter what you use for a receiver as l

Barry, I agree on the SSB point, but this thread was about James wanting to start working CW contests. As I keep bringing up, the problem with SSB is no longer our receivers, it's our transmitters. (
