[TenTec] Omni VII Filters

[Rick - DJ0IP / NJ0IP]

Dave, you brought up a real interesting point.

Previously I thought the exact same thing.  Had the Orion on a shelf and the remote VFO knob next to the keyboard.
I wasn't sure how it would be with a rig on a shelf, or pushed away.

Luckily, the Eagle is so small, when it came contest time, I simply pulled it right up next to the keyboard on the left, with the Vibroplex on the right. The end result was exactly the same, plus I had the AF & RF gain controls right there too.

BTW, the reason I chose the Omni over an Eagle (still want one to play with someday) is the availability of the remote tuning knob. I like my rigs raised above the operating desk (you can see that on QRZ.com) and the convenience of a tuning knob to the left of my keyboard with my paddle & key to the right can't be overstated for my personal style of operating.
