Thanks, Barry. The link on the wiki page points to wrong website for me. I understand it should go to the PAT50 i.f. Interface board designed for 12Mhz. Great, another project for the Omni VI+ when it gets on the bench! Merry Christmas to the TT family.Greg, KC8HXO

I posted a Web page with all the panadapter info including photos of the
buffer amp mod in the Omni 6+:  http://omni6.wikidot.com/panadapt
