[TenTec] Omni A - D Series B project

[Louis Ciotti]

Well my latest project arrived today.  A TenTec Omni D Series B.  It powers
up that is a plus I supposes.  Current symptoms as of now:

 

1)       Frequency display shows 9.000.0 or 1.000.0, on the 29.5, 29.0, AUX
and 3.5 band positions with no TX or RX on these bands

2)       The PTO will have to be rebuilt as tuning is super super slow.
Never done one, but I believe TenTec still sells the kit still. 

3)       Some scratchy pots ant switches are going to need some de-oxit

4)       The band switch is somwhat stiff when going into the 29.0 and 29.5
positions

 

Can I assume problem 1 may be with the band switch???

 

How do I get the PTO out?

 

On the bands that work I get full output power so the finals work.  Even
made a DX contact to France on 15 meters. While trying it out.

 

Thanks,

 

Lou
