I had my Omni-C station for 23 years. I deeply regret trading it, but we
don't always make great decisions. I kept a look out for mods over the
years and never really saw anything that I thought would noticeably
improve the transceiver's performance. Let's face it.... Ten-Tec had
several models before the C came out so plenty of time to work out the
'rough' spots. I left my Omni-C stock except for adding the additional
crystal filters and of course the remote VFO which was a hoot!
Oh, there is one MOD I do recommend. There is a gentleman that sells a
VFO stabalizer kit that works with the Omni-C line of PTO's. It is going
to cost you about $80 but will literally stop the drift inherent with
this generation of rig. Of course you can let the Omni sit for about 30
minutes, but even then it drifts a bit.... mine in the other direction.
I researched this because I like to operate PSK. If you are interested I
can find the link and send it to you.
