I have never had that problem, Tom with my old Omni-D; and I got it used many 
years ago!  Guys on this thread will help you solve the problem.  Let us know 
your results.  Karl, KO8S

 Hi all,

I'm curious if any of you have had this same problem. When my Omni D was new 
(to me - bought it used) it would die after about 1 hour. By "die", I mean it 
would go pretty deaf and the transmit output would go nearly to zero. I fixed 
it by opening it up, reseating every circuit board, and tightening up all of 
the ground lugs I could find. That was about 3 months ago. It has now started 
to do it again. I'm interested to know if anyone solved it once and for all.  
Meanwhile, I can go do the reseating shuffle again. It's a bit of a pain to 
troubleshoot, because it's difficult to get it to occur with the covers off the 
rig - apparently heat sensitive.
