[TenTec] Omni Series question

[Steve Weber]

Paul,

The A means Analog display
The D means digital display

The omnis were first available as a Omni A and Omni D.  Same rig with 
a different readout.

On your list these are:
Omni A
Omni B

The second iteration was the series B.  This was available in both 
analog and Digital display.
On your list these are:
Omni A series B
Omni D Series B
Tentec also offered an upgrade kit to turn the originals into the B 
series.  You can tell it is an upgrade if one of the knobs on the 
right side of the front panel has a sticker over the original panel 
markings.  I think it is the bandwidth selector switch.  The 
Originals had a squelch control in that position.

The third and final mutation was available only in digital and is 
called the Omni D Series C

Those are the official names.  The street names work like this.  The 
first model is called either the A or D, depending on display.  The 
second model is the B and is usually assumed to be digital.  The 
third model is simply called the Omni C.

Clear as mud?

I am not interested in this or that phenomenon,
in the spectrum of this or that element.
I want to know His thoughts; the rest are details.
