[TenTec] Modern version of the Tec Tec Corsair - please Ten Tec!

[Rick - DJ0IP / NJ0IP]

Mike that was Don, not me.
I don't have an Omni VI anymore.  Just an Eagle and a Scout and a very old
Omni A over at a friend's house.  I will retrieve it and play a bit.

rick,,,

just a nit to pick,

you're omni 6 is still talking digital. From the PLL to the digital freq
control. All digital and no matter how well you filter, there's still a
zillion 1s and 0s being turned on and off.

yes pulling out the audio before the DSP will make it sound better, but you
still have all the other stuff cooking behind.

Now, the Omni A... that's all analog
