[TenTec] Omni VI Opt. 3 Stopped Transmitting

[Duane A Calvin]

Scott,
        Sounds like you're starting to have the infamous intermittent
+12V connection to the power amp.  THis is not very hard to cure, or TT
can handle it for you if you don't feel up to it. Mine developed the
problem after 7 years, and it was a relatively easy fix (resolder).


        73,  Duane
