[TenTec] Receive 17m on Omni ,Tritons, etc.

[duane eaton]

I receive 17m on my Omni D ser.B Thusly.
Set band to 20m.
Use SB-R, Tune from 14414 to 14434.
Tune resonator near 21m until noise increases and tune for signals.
I estimate the mixer is using the 5th harmonic of the PTO 
which for the 17m band is at 27.068 minus 9 Mhz is 18.068. 
On 20m the PTO tunes from 5.0 to 5.5 Mhz.
This worked on my 315 Rx and suppose it will work on any of the similar
9 Mhz rigs, Triton, Argos.
