[TenTec] Shields in Omni VI

[Ken Brown]

Hi Steve,

The photos in the manual for my Omni VI do not show any of the shielding 
in place. I was wondering if I was confused and that the cover plates I 
remembered are in my Paragon and not in the Omni VI. When I read the 
manual for the Omni VI in the section describing how to install the 
optional filters, it clearly states that you need to "Remove the panel 
covering the PBT board" or "Remove the panel covering the 9 MHz filter 
board." So, even without opening up my Omni VI, I think I can say with a 
fair degree of certainty, "Yes there should be cover plates over the 9 
MHz and 6.3 MHz optional  filter access holes." I will be interested to 
hear whether adding shielding plates over those holes makes the birdie 
go away.

Ken,
 
I only just spotted your question about shield covers over the optional 
filter slots.
 
There aren't any - just holes! Should there be? I don't recall seeing 
any obvious fixing holes for covers or I might have been suspicious.
