[TenTec] Omni VI Opt 3. Key Clicks

[Ken Brown]

I recall some discussion about one cause of clicks in the Omni VI was 
the TX carrier BFO frequency being on the skirt of the default 9 MHz IF 
filter. The one that is used always for SSB TX  to reject the unwanted 
sideband, and is also in the signal path for CW TX. That would be where 
the suggested solution of getting a different filter comes from. Before 
spending the money on a different filter, it should be possible to 
adjust the TX BFO frequency (perhaps the right word is mis-adjust) to 
put it further into the filter passband, and out of the skirt area. That 
should demonstrate whether the clicks go away. Your TX frequency would 
be inaccurate. I am not saying this is a long term solution, but rather 
a troubleshooting step.
