[TenTec]omni-d (genealogy)

Karl,
 
Thanks for the history lesson (as far as it went).  Could you please carry it 
a bit farther to include the Paragons,  Corsairs, and the ensuing  Omnis. If 
it  hasn't been done already, it'd be nice for someone to compile a Ten Tec 
time  line listing all the transceivers and their features. It'd be sad to see  
the memory such a rich part of hamdom's past lost altogether.

The original Omni's were as follows:

Omni A  - Analog  version
Omni D -  Digital version

Then came the series B  modification which added two additional IF filter
slots, 30 meter receive and  an AUX band position.  So this made

Omni A Series B - Analog  Version
Omni D Series B - Digital Version

Later, TenTec had an upgrade  kit that added the 12 meter band to the AUX
position, and 30 meter transmit  to the above radios.

Finally, the Omni Series C came out.  It was  available only in digital.  It
added the 18 mhz band, individual  selection of IF and audio filter, and XIT.
