My first posting generated some interest but no sale, so I'm reducing the
price, plus I've added the TCXO kit that I forgot to list in the original
posting:

For sale: Omni VI w/ factory opt 3 upgrade (all the features of the VI+).
The radio includes the following accessories:

961 Power Supply / Speaker
288 1.8 kHz 6.3 MHz filter
285 500 Hz 6.3 MHz filter
282 250 Hz 6.3 MHz filter
257 Voice Synthesizer board
705 desk mic
RM3500 rack mount kit
TCXO kit (not installed)
Omni VI manual with opt 3 addenda pages
Omni VI+ manual

Home brew remote encoder built around the same Oak Grigsby encoder used by
TT. The tuning rate of the encoder is the same as the main dial. I also will
include a home brew cable to allow connecting a 9 pin PC serial port and the
encoder to the 25 pin connector on the back of the Omni VI

The radio was back to TT in the spring of 2002 for checkout / alignment.
Everything works. The cabinet is in good shape. I did notice that the RTTY
tones in FSK need alignment. They appear to be about 130 Hz split rather
than 170, but they are no problem to copy. With AFSK operation (of course)
RTTY is
170 Hz.

I'd like $1700 plus shipping for the package. I would consider offers on
just the radio or the radio and some of the accessories, but will not sell
the accessories until the radio is sold.

(just in case) Would also consider trading the radio towards an Orion.
