[TenTec] Omni VI Opt 3. Key Clicks

When you read the TenTec wiki did you see the heading on key clicks?  Simple mod, just unplug one wire.Just do not remember which one right now.

Hi Guys,

Well during the ARRL DX contest, someone complained key clicks coming from my Omni VI Opt. 3.  I have read through the Ten Tec Wiki about this issue and I’m a little unclear about what to do.  My take on the various postings is that the 2.4 KHz filters need to be replaced with the Inrad 2.8 KHz filters.  Is this all I need to do in order to fix the key clicks?  A friend of mine checked for me and it looks like both of my Omni VI’s have key clicks about 300 Hz above and below the center frequency.  He listened to some of my other rigs (K3 & IC746) and they did not have the key clicks.  I did adjust the keying shape pot and it didn’t really seem to help much one way or the other.  I am hoping that I don’t have to do major surgery on this thing……
