James,
 
Given the superior DSP in the O-VII compared to the O-VI, that's an awfully hearty endorsement and I appreciate it.
 
The O-VI has a low pass audio DSP filter and a peaking filter as well, but I bet they are 16 bit engines, and the technology is almost 20 years old; much has changed.
 
73 and hope to work you on the bands.  I read your QRZ.COM bio and I am mostly a CW operator, and enjoy everything from from QRS to slow QRQ so maybe we'll meet on 40 meters.  I really respect that you are choosing to learn CW, and I hope you come to enjoy it.
 
73,
Art

I use a Timewave DSP-599zx with an Omni VII, and it is
worth it to me.

Last Spring at Dayton, I purchased the West MountainRadio
CLRdsp noise reduction device, but have yet to deploy it,
as I have the Timewave DSP unit and have bee loathe to
take it off line.

I guess that means I am satisfied with it.    ;-)

Parenthetically, the West Mountain CLRdsp is very light weight,
and has a lousy paint job - finger prints show up on it so it
looks kinda disreputable once you have handled it a bit.

I will have to tear up the station and set up an
A/B side-by-side comparison.

Just MY take.   Your mileage, of course, might vary from mine.

added that to a 564 or Option 3, and if so, was it worth it?
