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

[CSM(r) Gary Huber - AB9M]

Jim,

I've always told myself that my TenTec radios had a lower RX noise floor than the radio on the other end.

I've seen this happen mostly when the received signal was less than S-1. Usually if the received signal was S-2 or greater, I could put him in the log.

73,

Gary - AB9M
