[TenTec] Omni VI+ the best and other great radios

[John Unger]

One problem with the Omni VI, VI+, and some other out-of-production TenTec 
radios is that key components may no longer be available for easy repairs. 
For example, TenTec tech support told me it was not cost effective to 
repair my Omni VI, option 3, because they no longer stocked the logic board 
that is the 'heart' of that radio.
