[TenTec] Ten Tec Omni D Intermittent Receive Problem

[piper cub]

Thank You Bill for your information.
Your information makes me curious to think maybe this is a problem, especially with an older radio like the Omni D series.
 
I appreciate your comment and will investigate this further.
 
Thank You for you Input.

I had this happen on an Omni VI+, and I found a “bad pin” on a filter.
Looked as though some contaminant had been there when the pin was 
soldered to the filter PCB, and it had not “wetted” well...  
the pin/solder contact had “fractured”...
simply re-wetting it with a soldering iron fixed it.
