[TenTec] Omni VI+ TXCO

[Jim Goudie]

Hi Ron,

I haven't verified this, but my recollection is that the Omni VI had the xtal oven.  When they came out with the Omni VI Plus they went to the TXCO, which I believe was standard.  But, the original VI's that were upgraded (Option 3) had the TXCO put in... so for the original Omni VI's, it was an upgrade (to the Option 3).
