Hello Ten Tec Gurus- I purchased an Omni D, 252 power supply, and a =
model 243 VFO in January, and can gladly say it's been an excellent =
station thus far. One strange thing I noticed about the 243 is that the =
linear tuning indicator is missing, and I'm not sure it was ever =
installed. When the VFO is operated in a mode where it is providing the =
receive frequency, the VFO's frequency is displayed on the Omni D's =
freq. readout. Was there a special option or something similar offered =
by Ten Tec such that when a 243 VFO was sold with an Omni D, the analog =
tuning indicator was removed, or should I assume the previous owner =
removed the string and indicator? Unfortunately, the previous owner is =
a silent key, so I can't ask him- I bought the rig through QTH.com from =
his widow. At any rate, it is no problem to read the freq. off of the =
Omni's display- I am just curious about this.
=20
Also, does anyone know of a good source for fiberglass tubing? I want to =
build a cubicle quad, and can't seem to find a priceworthy source for =
fiberglass tubing. ANY input here would be very appreciated.

Many Thanks,
Jason KA7UAM
