Thanks for posting this, Ron.  My favorite radio is sitting there in the 
Service Department, and I am hoping that it will still be fixed, despite 
all the changes necessitated by the change in ownership. The new service 
rates are in line with what I used to have charged for my efforts when I 
worked at the local two-way shop.  I just want it to be fixed.

I bought an Omni VII during the Fire Sale, and now wish that I had 
waited.  I had the impression that the then owners were gutting the 
company and selling off what they could, and that was apparently the 
case.  I too, am waiting to see what models the new ownership is 
developing.

73,

Steve WA9JML
