Hi Doug,
First of all, I own a Omni VI+, a Hercules II, and a Titan.  I used to own a 
paragon, Omni VI and a Centurion.  So I have some idea
what I am talking about.  The Omni VI+ is a great rig, I love it, but dollar 
for dollar you get more enjoyment out of the Hercules
II.  It will make your rig a 500 watt transceiver and the people you can hear 
will answer you.  If you get the Omni Vi+, you will
have one of the worlds best receivers and will hear lots of stations that can't 
hear you. This is only my opinion, but certainly
what I would do.
73, Ken  W7TS

Hey guys I think this might be a question that may be a little bit different
but here it goes.
  I have just sold some old radios that I didn't need anymore so I could by a
Herculesll amp.  Well I was about to call Scott at TT and have him send me one
but I happened to have a nice talk with a guy on 18m the other day.  He said
that he was using a Omni 6+ .  I then told him I was going to by the Hercules
amp.  He told me if I were him, I should sell my Omni 5 and get the Omni 6+
instead of using the money on the amp.  He thought the 6+ was of better value
to me than the amp and I would really like it more than the 5.
Most of my hamming is just fun, little dx and some cw.
  So what do you think?
Thanks
Doug KF6BKH
PS.  I do not have the money to buy both!
