I am quite interested in an Omni VI. Have a TS870 that is terrible on CW on
160-40 with DSP filter leakage and all sorts of gobbledegook in the
background even with the AIP (which is turning off the preamp) and 18dB of
attenuation in.
I hear rumor from Eu friends that Europeans dont buy the Omni VI because it
cant handle strong signals. Any contesting types out there that would
comment on the ability of the rig to do well in a high rf environment and
not roll over and die??  Western Ohio is a great place for RF burns out of
Ill, Ind. Mi, and Oh.
tnx for any info.
