[TenTec] OMNI VI Question

[K. Indart]

I don't remember where I saw it, but it was recommended that the power
supply remain on and the Omni switched off if desired.  I have had an Omni
almost 3 years.  The power supply was  switched off a couple of times when
re wiring the AC, otherwise always ON.  Never had any problem with loosing
memory.  The Omni power supply barely shows any temp at all in that standby
condition.73 Ken WA4RPH

Subject: [TenTec] OMNI VI Question

How long does the built-in battery keep data saved to the OMNI
VI's memory?

I'm referring to stuff like the clock's time, and other menu
settings.

If I turn my power supply off overnight, the next day the OMNI
has forgotten everything.
If I leave the power supply on and only turn the OMNI off, all is
OK.
If I turn the power supply off for only a short while, all is
still OK.

It seems to me my OMNI VI has always behaved this way.
Is this normal, or should the info normally remain in memory much
longer?

Thanks for any comments.
