Alex,
	The Omni-C is a great radio. I got the chance to compare an Omni-C and 
Eagle side to side. Considering the 30 years difference in age the 
Omni-C was fantastic. Yes, I would like to own an Eagle and maybe 
someday I will. If I had known the Eagle was going to be on sale I could 
have sold a few extra radios so I would have had the funds.

	I also have a Corsair II and a Paragon. You could say the Omni-C, 
Corsair II and the Paragon make up my first string team. Neat thing is I 
have extra parts radios for the Corsair, Corsair II and Omni-C. With my 
38 years of electronics experience I plan to keep those great radios 
humming till I am a silent Key.
	
	My current TenTec Radios line-up:
   	
			Argosy D		Delta
			Omni-C			Corsair
			Corsair II		Paragon

	Enjoy your great radio, 73'S  KA5SIW

	James B. Boswell
