Paul:

I'm very, very interested in the modified Omni VI.  I
have had three VI's, and currently have a factory VI
PLUS loaded, but unmodified.  I have been disappointed
wiht the CW chirp (Yes, I can clearly hear it).  If
your unit has had the chirp eliminated, then I would
like to buy it.  I believe I can sell the factory six
plus and come close to breaking even on the deal.  In
my estimation, they actually cheapened the VI PLUS
factory in a couple of areas, especially in the gluing
of the key panel in place so you have to break off
some parts to get it out of the front panel.  The
older units used brass screw inserts.

Please advise.  I am a perfectionist and have changed
the panel trim on two of the VI's I had because of
small nicks.  From what I read, I think you may be as
well, and that's GREAT

THANKS

Allen Bush, AE0Z
