Don:
There was a factory mod for the Omni 5 that consisted of installing a 7805  
or maybe it was a 7808 or 7812 voltage regulator on one of the boards in   the 
Omni 5.  I had the same problem many years ago. They sent me the parts  with 
instructions and I installed it myself. It was a very easy  install. I can't 
remember now which voltage regulator they actually  used or where it actually 
installed as my mind is foggy about it.  I  may have it in my Omni 5 service 
manual that I keep written notes in if you  can't seem to find out anything more 
about it.  If you can't I can dig  for the info for you. The Omni 5 will drift 
about 30-100 Cycles worst case  scenario after the mod is done.
