Agree. I have an OMNI 6+, OMNI VII, and an Eagle on line. All have excellent ears. Each is a little different, but all are great radios. I still prefer my OMNI VI+ though. I also use an ARGO V mobile. Does a good job on cw with a hustler antenna on roof of truck. Go with TenTec and you get a bonus of great, great service. jim, K4CFA
