Paul,
The A means Analog display
The D means digital display
The omnis were first available as a Omni A and Omni D. Same rig with
a different readout.
On your list these are:
Omni A
Omni B
The second iteration was the series B. This was available in both
analog and Digital display.
On your list these are:
Omni A series B
Omni D Series B
Tentec also offered an upgrade kit to turn the originals into the B
series. You can tell it is an upgrade if one of the knobs on the
right side of the front panel has a sticker over the original panel
markings. I think it is the bandwidth selector switch. The
Originals had a squelch control in that position.
The third and final mutation was available only in digital and is
called the Omni D Series C
Those are the official names. The street names work like this. The
first model is called either the A or D, depending on display. The
second model is the B and is usually assumed to be digital. The
third model is simply called the Omni C.
Clear as mud?

I want to know how God created the world.?
I am not interested in this or that phenomenon,
in the spectrum of this or that element.
I want to know His thoughts; the rest are details.
