[TenTec] Omni VI+/960 PS down

[Ron Notarius W3WN]

After sending this a few minutes ago, I had a "doh!" moment... unhooked the
260 PS from the Corsair and tried it on the Omni, and the rig powers up just
fine.  So it's definitely something the PS.

Had something unexpected happen with my Omni VI+ & 960 power supply earlier
today.

Sequence of events:

Omni had been on for awhile listening to some PSK-31.  Worked some DX on 12,
then shut it down, followed by the 960 (had an appointment to go to).

When I went to power it back up later, turned on the 960 first.  LED blinked
a couple of times.  Omni did not power back up.  Turned everything off.  Now
the 960 does not appear to power up at all; no light on the LED, no voltage
output that I can measure.

Checked the fuse; it appears to be fine.  So my immediate guess is that
something in the PS popped to protect the fuse...  although I'm not 100%
certain, since I don't have a cable available to run the Omni from my Astron
PS (it's ordered, but won't be here for a few days.  Of course.)

Sound familiar to anyone?

73, ron w3wn
