Due to an upcoming project at work it appears that ham "tinker time" will be 
deceasing considerably for the forseeable future. Therefore I've decided that 
rather than let the Omni-D in the subject line sit around till "who knows 
when" I'd see if anyone on the list is interested in it.

I picked it up at at hamfest a couple of years ago; from my understanding it 
came from a SK. I suspect it had been sitting for a while as the PTO is very 
stiff, and the tens digit on the display is "now you see it now you don't." I 
suspect the problem is a cold solder joint or connector as tapping on the 
display bezel will sometimes make it flicker. Other than that it puts out RF 
into a dummy load (I haven't tried it on the air due to the PTO issue), and 
right now it's hooked up to an indoor antenna and reading the mail on 20 CW. 
Cosmetically it has various small nicks and scratches typical for its age 
(mostly on the handle) but does not appear to have been mistreated.

Rig does not have any optional filters. Asking $150 shipped CONUS. Pics and 
more info on request.

Would probably be a good candidate for a DDS VFO transplant....
