[TenTec] Omni 6+ calibration

[Tommy]

Hi Dick,

The answer to your question is yes and no!!

If your dial accuracy is off by 300 hz, then yes, you calibrate the 
master oscillator, which is either a TCXO or an oven heated xtal oscillator.

But I assume your talking about on SSB? If so, then you have to 
calibrate the BFO frequencies, and there are five of them. The manual 
has a step-by-step procedure for doing that. It is, however, time 
consuming. For either case, you will need a well calibrated frequency counter.

I have just done this on both of my Omni 6+ rigs and it takes about 2 
hours to complete one.
