This one is kind of interesting:
While operating in a 10 meter net tonight, my Omni VI/3 (vintage 1993)
suddenly began, for lack of a better way to put it, doing a 10 hz picket
fence number on the rx audio. At first I thought it was the guy on the
other end but no, it was doing it everywhere I tuned so I knew it had to my
my rig. Front panel buttons quit being responsive unless I pushed them 2 or
3 times, then the p.s. would trip the whole thing off. When I pushed the cw
button the rig began sending continual dits, then tripped off the p.s.
again. Anyone have any ideas on which innards went South for the winter?
I'm thinking microprocessor but I don't see how that squares with the p.s.
tripping off. I just put up a new antenna and I'm having a ball with it, or
was, so I'm not real surprised this happened.
Tnx, 73
