[TenTec] Omni VII: RF in TX Audio

[David and Dianne on Comcast]

Hi All,

This past week I added a 'new to me' Omni VII to the shack along with 
the #715 speech processor.  The rig has been excellent so far expect for 
one glitch that is avoiding any remedy I try.

I am using a TT 705 microphone,  When I feed it into the Omni VII via a 
TT #710 4 to 8 pin mic adapter I get stellar audio reports. But when I 
feed it through the #715 to the rig I get reports of significant RF on 
my TX audio whether or not the #715 processor is in-line/active or bypassed.

I have used the 715 on my Omni V.9 using the same mic with no problem.

I have also noticed that the Omni VII audio/mic gain seems really 'hot'  
(i.e. excess gain) requiring me to run it at no more than 10% open. Is 
this normal?

Anyone else have a similar situation and/or a possible solution? Please 
reply off list.

Thanks to all in advance.

BTW this is a really excellent receiver with a nice features set
