[TenTec] 28.5 band segment on Omni D

[Ivin Flint]

Nothing that I have heard.  I just like to have everything working.  I was trying to listen for activity on the date October 10, 2010 as 10/10/10 and hoped to hear something but never did.
 
I did get it to work, but it's still a little flaky.  I guess the crystal still isn't making a very good connection into the socket.  I tried to re-clean the crystal leads and socket several times but it still isn't 100% working solid.  *drives me crazy*.  The SWR meter also  lays dead quite a bit unless a strong signal pops it back to life or I switch filtering which I guess is also related to it receiving a signal stronger.  *THIS DRIVES ME CRAZY TOO*  neither of which is probably just cause to send it in for repair though.
 
thanks for asking.

Ivin,

I know it's nice to have everything work properly on any radio. Like my Triton IV had the same feature.. But, it didn't have FM.. Is there something being used in that band segment today I don't know about besides 10M repeaters ?? Never did figure out why TT did that..
