Also see if it will transmit when you push the TUNE button. If it
does, do the obvious and check your keying line. If it does not, see
if you are drawing any current when you push the tune button. If it
draws no current, it may be bad news, like final transistors. Good
luck !

Scott:
Did you try re-seating the jumper plug in the keying loop in the
back of the transceiver that is intended to connect to a linear
amplifier. Occasionally that jumper will become unseated an
render the transmitter inoperable. Just pull the jumper, wipe the
contacts with something mildly abrasive, and re-install.

Subject: [TenTec] Omni VI Opt. 3 Stopped Transmitting
The radio stopped keying right in the middle of a CW traffic net
last night.
Sidetone works. Receiver is fine. I got no power output on any
band in any
mode.
I tried it again after a night's rest, and at first it worked.
Then after
about ten minutes, same deal, no transmit. I did a partial reset
of the
processor without improvement. Then I did a full reset without
improvement.
As of now, it won't transmit in any mode regardless of how long I
rest it.
I plan to call TenTec on Monday for suggestions. I thought I
would ask for
ideas on here as well.
Thanks in advance for any pointers.
