[TenTec] Fair Market Price for Omni VI+ will all filters&matching PS ?

[Bob McGraw - K4TAX]

In early 2012, I sold my last Omni VI Plus, 5 optional Tentec filters 
installed, 259 ALC Annunciator and 257 Synthesizer, TT 962 PS and 705 mike, 
original boxes and manual for a measly $2100 to an individual buyer.  We 
both thought it a fair price.  He had listened to and used several other 
Omni VI Plus units and found them less than satisfactory even at a lower 
price.

I had done extensive work to get rid of the multiple birdies on 12M and 10M. 
I replaced the bypass caps on the PA board to improve the stability of the 
stage.  Although the changes were strictly component changes, selected to be 
better quality or better suited for the application, and the added toroids 
to certain cables inside the box were applied to get rid of birdies.  There 
were no physical modifications visible inside or outside.

I guess one gets what they pay for.

Bob, K4TAX
