Ten-Tec apparently has lost its corporate memory.  I do not 
remember the capacitor value or the connection point, and my 
Omni is in Tennessee, but it goes directly on a connector on top.  
Not only that, but I got the recommendation from Ten-Tec, not from 
this group.  Call again and ask for Don Prouty, Paul Clinton, or 
another Omni VI-specific technician.  If they still say nothing, wait 
two weeks until my Omni is back and send me a reminder and I 
will try to point it out.

Oh, yes.  After having one for five years, I call it the Omni-Fix.  I 
cannot afford better, but I hvae a backup radio for the times when it 
is in repair.
