Ron,
Please check the output (scope and freq counter) from the 5.0-5.5MHz PLL.
Since it's dropping out on all bands while tuning the 5.0-5.5MHz oscillator,
I suspect that you are losing output from the synthesized vfo. If you can
confirm that behavior, you can then dig deeper.
I'm not very familiar with the Omni V, but I would think that the PLL
synthesized vfo is similar to the Omni VI.
73,

Hi Steve and Others
I have am Omni V that dies if the ambient temperature goes above 25 C (77
F).
Mine dies on all bands. It dies on the low end first and moves up the band.
A further warning of trouble is that the sigs. both RX and TX have a rough,
choppy sound. One suggestion was to recap the rig and\or use a TCXO
in place of the MO.
