[TenTec] Omni VI + Voice Synthesizer Board.

[Froiseth Richard]

Carl,

Thanks for the info.
I wrote Ten Tec a note and they wont give out any info without a work order.
I use to be able to call and receive help on things like this, but I guess times have change.
Thanks again.

Depending on the model of the rig, there will be one diode, two diodes or a jumper. The Omni series requires a jumper for proper readout. '

I know that sounds silly, but that's what happened, anyway do you know if you can tell if the mod has been done by looking at the board? There is a note in the manual stating if the board came out of anything other than a 563 or 564 call the factory for modification details.  I guess I can shoot them off an e-mail and hope they respond.
