[TenTec] Omni C Sidetone

[Richard Detweiler]

Hi,

I've played with several of these, the side tone oscilator probably needs 
some new components around it.  It sounds nice when new, but after 30 years, 
the caps can change a little. then it can sound rough.   All the components 
on the side tone circuit are cheap, even the IC is cheap, probably less than 
4 bucks for all of it.

Best wishes,
Rich
