I just got my Omni 6+ last Wednesday. I read the manual after playing
with all the knobs and buttons. i even tried the noise blanker knob.
there was a little background noise. Well, made no dent in it. But it
was the wrong kind of noise. last night i got a 10 over 9 rush of noise
from something that used to wipe out my Omni A and Scout. Well, i turned
the noise blanker knob fully clockwise and THE NOISE VANISHED. I could
hear a Checz Rep station perfectly. he was just S 3. i turned the noise
blanker knob fully counter clockwise and the noise was back at 10+9! i
turned the n.b. knob clockwise again and the noise vanished and the checz
station was there at s 3. Amazing!
