Oh Steve,
Your choking me up! :-)
My main radio is an Omni C but the 9 mHz BFO is off by 200 hz and I can't
experience the 1.8kHz/position 2 of the AF filter combination. It's been
this way for so long that I can't remember what that combination sounds like.
I've got to ship this radio off to Ten Tec and get it fixed.
